Feature description
When you have clicked on a video in the feed or search list, make the video load before the comments and the channel widget.
Why do you want this feature?
If you are in rather bad network conditions you can see that the channel info widget and comments load before the video player "visually initialises" and starts playing the video. This could speed up the time between clicking on a video and the video being played.
Additional information
I think that the video id and other ids, if necessary, to load the video directly are loaded in the feed.
