Comment:
> No, enable proprietary codecs will prevent us from redistribution.

Sorry don't quite understand why, this flag only tells qt6-webengine to recognize proprietary codecs and does not ship any additional codecs? The user is free to choose open source codec implementations (e.g. x264) or a proprietary one (e.g. h264), so wouldn't any licensing issues lie with the user?

also this flag is already enabled for qt5-webengine
