For me, the prizm to see M$' cross-platform policies is through their flaky support for Mac OS (some of which are commercial products, natch) over the past couple of decades. The word "support" applies very loosely in M$' vocabulary.

+ HTML5 (adds elements for UI of media players, in hopes of eliminating Flash-based video/audio players as well).

+ SVG. Don't forget the most important part, vector graphics and animation. :) Add in standard h.264/AAC support for video and JPEG2000 for photos with alpha channels, and some good content creation tools, and we'll be set!

So... the odds that Internet Explorer will ever actually support any of these over Microsoft's own proprietary software? Maybe if its market share drops below 50% and everyone else has them nailed. Maybe.
