Youtube request
Folks, when you do a Youtube embed, would you please include a straight URL pointer? About 20% of the time, an embedded youtube falls over and doesn't do anything I click "play". Yet, if I can find a straight pointer to it, I can go to Youtube and it plays just fine.
Also, when I'm reading text-only (which I do about half the time), it's a pain to go find the [EMBED] later and follow them - I'm much more likely to e-mail myself a URL pointing at youtube than a URL pointing to a post with an embedded youtube item. The failure rate is too high for it to be worth the effort.
