Comment (by tar.gz):

 Replying to oyvinds: I believe what you want to say is "let me insert from
 the uploader, I don't want to type in shortcodes". I guess we all agree on
 that.

 But did you notice what happens when you insert a picture gallery from the
 media uploader? It generates a shortcode for you! But you won'tsee it if
 you use the visual editor. That's the type of functionality that
 wonderboymusic's proposal is aiming for.

 Another thing, to wonderboymusic: don't forget about captions! The html5
 video element, and fully-featured players such as MediaElement, also
 support caption tracks (coming as .srt files). That's a great
 functionality, and something that "every modern CMS system, social network
 and the likes today" doesn't offer. For me that would be a compelling
 reason for self-hosting my videos on WP.
