​Yeah, from my understanding, the window manager draws windows and standard
elements only. If an application uses gstreamer backend (with graphic
acceleration) to play a video, it is the job of the application to use
direct opengl to display the video content. This explains why it it
possible to display a window or an application playing video without a
window manager. I am not sure why you say E is a compositor, X-server is
the compositor. E simply interfaces with Xlib to draw any special
canvases.
