Thought this might be of interest, ive been heavily involved
implementing code from my custom players as plugins into the
fliowplayer project which has just released version 3.1.
It now has support for clustering connections with round robin and
connection fallback. I have plans to possibly include the possibility
of status script so the client knows which server is available
resource wise to connect to.
It also has support for bandwidth checking against FMS / Wowza and
Red5, and there is an initial stage for dynamic stream switching
support which works great in FMS and would love to get that support in
Red5, the stream can be switched manually, and a flag can be set to
start at the current position but it might buffer in Red5 that is all.

I have also been investigating into support for sending a secureToken
connection property so the client can deal with it and send a token in
a callback. Its not so easy trying to do it in a loaded bean as a
"plugin" inside a webapp as it requires to trap the onconnect event
and then add a property to the status object to send to the client.
Any suggestions here would be great :)
