VP9 in MP4 container

[mossly]

Support for encoding VP9 in an MP4 container would be useful for Discord as webm lacks native iOS support and therefore does not embed.

VP9 is natively supported and does embed on iOS when uploaded in mp4.

Encoding works in ffmpeg, but my attempt to make a custom encode profile for webmgenerator has been unsuccessful.

{"name":"Discord 50M VP9 mp4","editable":false,"outputFormat":"mp4:VP9","maximumSize":"50.0","audioChannels":"No audio"}

A customer encoder spec would be the way to go, but a direct copy of the vpn doesn't seem to work on iphone:

Any ideas on additonal parameters or options you'd want?
