(that QuickTime vs. PNG argument is pretty flimsy) when all it does is force

Flimsy in what sense? If QuickTime (or any plugin) can take over PNG, then PNG image support when the <object> tag is used would effectively be broken. Suddenly all sorts of built-in browser functionality breaks. Web sites would break. The end user would have no real understanding of what was going wrong or how to fix it.

Plug-ins should not be allowed to break your browser.
