I've got these gstreamer pkgs installed:

# pkg info -a -o | awk '{print $2}' | grep gstream
multimedia/gstreamer1
multimedia/gstreamer1-libav
multimedia/gstreamer1-plugins
multimedia/gstreamer1-plugins-good


Note that I also installed www/firefox some time ago - maybe this installed
something that is needed for HTML 5 to work with vimb-gtk3 ...



Regarding your idea of mentioning these pkgs in pkg-message:
Do you have any usage data for vimb? Why and how do users use it? If they use
it as a nearly full-feature replacement for bloated browsers like firefox or
chromium, they might expect vimb to be able to support HTML5 out of the box
which would mean that personally I would make these pkgs real run-dependencies.
If users use it as an enhanced lynx ;) I would put some notes in pkg-message.
Anyway those notes in pkg-message are preferable over nothing ...
