 > Of course not, that would be insane. But there's got to be a better way
 than whitelisting. Even doing something like stripping out script tags by
 default would be a better solution.

 I thought about that, but a lotta sites do their embeds using Javascript.
 And even `<object>` itself can be bad (there's a reason none of that stuff
 is allowed on WordPress.com for example).
