[Bf-taskforce25] 2.5 movie player

[Matt Ebb]

As mentioned at the winter camp, I'd also like the ability to spawn an  
external player, such as DJV ( http://djv.sourceforge.net/ ) which we  
use at work and is quite superior to Blender's player ;) Other people  
use commercial apps like FrameCycler too.

Though i agree if blender does ship with a ram player, it should have  
some GUI elements, rather than those hotkeys which nobody knows unless  
you've read the code or had it passed down by secret handshakes.
