Summary	0008314: Support for extensible embedding objects like YouTube and data like customer data
Description	Support embedding tags like: [embed type=mytype]myparam[/embed] The users should be able to easily implement support for their own types. I've attached a patch that implements the infrastructure and the support for YouTube and TinyPicVideo as examples. Lets see if there is a demand for it and people can find good use for it. Note that you can embed data extracted from some database or web service. For example: [embed type=customerdata]John Doe[/embed] The custom implementation for this type can fetch the latest information and display it inline.
