 Vimeo, and likely other providers as well,
 [http://vimeo.com/api/docs/oembed allow custom arguments to be passed]
 when fetching the oEmbed code to customize the returned player HTML (e.g.
 {{{color}}}, {{{autoplay}}}, etc.).

 Currently, it seems only the {{{maxheight}}} and {{{maxwidth}}} arguments
 [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/3.1/wp-includes/class-
 oembed.php?rev=17370#L165 are passed] when fetching the oEmbed data.


 However, I'd like to do something like this:

 {{{http://vimeo.com/12345?color=7AB800}}}

 #=>
 http://vimeo.com/api/oembed.xml?url=http%3A//vimeo.com/12345&color=7AB800

 which will let me customize the player colour.
