 feasible would be great to have these short codes of a little different
 style, with traditional short code taking precedence if already loaded
 (would have to extend their definitions).

 Can provide explicit fields for the possible parameters defined for the
 short code (addresses MU, security, and customization/flexibility).

 The Proof of Concept plugin attached above prefers predefined shortcodes
 over oEmbed.  If it notices that there's an already defined shortcode for
 the resource I'm trying to oEmbed, it uses the shortcode, not the oEmbed
 stuff.

 I'm talking about the plugin's backend stuff.  There's no UI at all in the
 proof of concept plugin.
