This is something that Safari on OS X gets so right, that I've long been amazed (and annoyed when I have to use other browsers) that the other browsers don't copy the functionality.
In Safari, if you tab out a new page, it will load the content but pause it until you show the page. So you can tab out a bunch of video pages and they each only autoplay when you tab through them.
Wanting the same functionality on Chrome seemed to involve plugins or clicking (which has now turned into right clicking and choosing play).
