Actually no.  You don't understand the situation.  Firefox does not
include H.264 at all.  Firefox will play H.264 if the underlying
platform includes the codecs which is not the case for Fedora by default
although assuming they switch over to using Gstreamer instead of
bundling codecs, any user will be install the codecs they want later.
