Oh yes, that is different. :)

You might be interested in this post by Monty, on long range design goals:

Personally, I'm at an utter loss as to properly designing the nonlinear
stuff. I'm even afraid to allow urls in the time-coded text streams. 
For now, I'd suggest embedding (linear) Ogg multimedia segments in a more
general framework, not the other way around.

But if you've got some ideas on how to do this, I'd really like to hear
them!
