Youtube iFrame context menu oddities

I'm using youtube iframe to embed videos on a site of mine. I'm using the iframe so that visitors to the site that don't have flash installed will see a html5 capable player.

Everything plays and runs as expected until you right click on the video and select and option like "copy embed HTML" and the video jumps off to the left of the iframe.

Upon inspecting the source, it seems like there is a div with class .player-actions-container that has a css rule of left: 101% if i remove this rule the player jumps back to its starting position.

Do you have this problem in all browsers? I was unable to replicate this in Chrome. - captainrad
Only happens with chrome (18.0.1025.162) and chromium (18.0.1025.142 (Developer Build 129054 Linux)), haven't had a chance to test it on any other platform other than Linux. - ncremins

Your concern over lack of Flash presence is at this time unwarranted.
