Comment (by kranzoky):

 The only problem I can foresee is that if there is an issue with an
 Oembed, then the URL just ends up being a normal URL in the editor, so you
 wouldn't be able to click on the embed or have the "Insert from URL"
 dialogue box appear in order to refresh the Oembed cache.

 You can see the issue here: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/32553

 The issue I ran into is that sometimes just one or two URLs would get
 corrupted in a post and wouldn't convert over to embeds correctly (the
 would at first but then for some reason would stop). And then I had to use
 a plugin called Oembed Cache to clear the Oembed cache for that specific
 post to get everything working again.

 So I am wondering if there is some way to just have a button/link appear
 somewhere when there are Oembeds within the post that says something like
 "Refresh Oembed Cache"?
