I'm wondering if it might be better to just provide all of the headers or track
info as tags. For example:

GST_TAG_MATROSKA_TRACKUID
GST_TAG_MATROSKA_TRACKNUMBER
GST_TAG_MATROSKA_NAME
GST_TAG_MATROSKA_LANGUAGE
...
GST_TAG_OGG_NAME
GST_TAG_OGG_TITLE
GST_TAG_OGG_ROLE
GST_TAG_OGG_STREAM_SERIAL_NUMBER
...
GST_TAG_MPEGTS_PID

Then the browser can figure out what it wants to do with it.

It might be nice if we could provide this in a general way, since Ogg Skeleton
allows free-form headers. Maybe just GST_TAG_OGG_SKELETON_HEADERS, with a list
of headers?
