Comment:

 Could we not just register youtu.be as another oembed provided and rely on
 the 302 following of the HTTP handlers.

 That way we don't need any youtu.be specific code in here and if they
 change the url format of any of the providers in future and offer 302
 redirects we would follow those too?
