LoadFromDocumentElement is the base class for MediaElements that load documents that contain information about the real MediaElement to expose. For example, the contents of a SMIL document can be represented as a MediaElement, but until the SMIL document is loaded, it's impossible to know what MediaElement the SMIL document represents.

Because of the dynamic nature of this operation, a LoadFromDocumentElement extends ProxyElement. When the document has been loaded, this class will set the proxiedElement property to the MediaElement that was generated from the document.

This is an abstract base class, and must be subclassed.

Note: It is simplest to use the MediaPlayer class in conjunction with subclasses of the LoadFromDocumentElement. If you work directly with a LoadFromDocumentElement, then it's important to listen for events related to traits being added and removed. If you use the MediaPlayer class with a LoadFromDocumentElement, then the MediaPlayer will automatically listen for these events for you.
