Generic embedding via "oembed" would be nice. An attempt was made quite a long time ago to support that. It stalled on configuration [#381] (perhaps related to domains and security?) and then was removed in [#1959].
Let's keep it simple for now, and only support youtube. But we can set it up in a generic fashion, so its easy to extend to other sites too.
I'm thinking the macro should look like [[embed url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOLpSPEA72U]] for example. We can use a python oembed library to easily convert URLs into the embed html/js. Only enable youtube urls for now.

Yeah, ticket [#381] and [#1959] are some related tickets. I think the idea back then to was allow embedding anything at all, and so there was extra work to use an iframe and a different domain, to keep the remote content sandbox. This will go the easier route and just used trusted sources (only youtube) for now.
