Videos to Automatically Play in Rise

I posted this as a reply to someone else, but I'd like to post it here as well. I understand the "why it is a non-feature" at the top of this thread. However, to be blunt, that's a non-answer and a fairly myopic viewpoint. We all don't do things the same way. Many of my clients end up monetizing their courses on cloud-based platforms and insist that a standard branded intro or a logo animation appears automatically when the course is launched. So there are cases when the ability to auto-start a video is not only desired, but required. I'd like to add my voice to the request to add this feature.
