Well, enabling the plugin on a F28 system results in a message saying the plugin will
be downloaded soon.....but it never does.  At least not after 2hrs of waiting.

I just now upgraded an F27 laptop to F28.  Previously the FF in F27 showed H.264
support available when checking www.youtube.com/html5 and the plugin disabled.

After the upgrade everything still works just fine and I see compat-ffmpeg28 has been
installed from rpmfusion.

I then installed compat-ffmpeg28 on an F28 install which I had done in a VM a while
back and had no H.264 support.  After the install, it too had support added.
