Binary package hint: totem

Release: Intrepid, x86 (i.e. 32bit)

Maybe this is a PEBKAC and I'm just expecting things to be too
intuitive, but trying something as simple as:

totem http://site/path/to/video.mp4

doesn't actually stream and play the video.  Totem reports:

$ totem http://site/path/to/video.mp4

It would appear that totem is stripping off the http://site portion of
the URI and expecting the file to exist locally.
