I think if we're willing to grant such an exception to Firefox, we should be willing to extend the same to Chromium. That is, of course, provided that we can actively work towards cutting away at bundled libraries and getting the engine switched from FFmpeg to GStreamer. Right now, the effort to switch from ffmpeg to GStreamer is being done largely by Samsung, and I think that variant of Chromium is much more appealing due to the pluggable codec framework in GStreamer. I'd rather not have Fedora ship Chromium with a gimped ffmpeg if we didn't have to, but it would be acceptable if using Samsung's efforts to offer GStreamer support isn't appealing right now and that the bundled ffmpeg libraries are split out into a subpackage.
