Comment (by Otto42):

 pre_http_request and filtering wp_embed_defaults don't give you the args
 from the shortcode, so you can only affect things on a global scale.

 Reissuing the fetch is just bad mojo, obviously. Go to all the effort of
 making an HTTP request only to throw it away and do it all over again
 differently? Please.

 I'll add a patch for #16996 to add a filter. It's a simple one-liner to
 make this pluggable. Just filter the $provider string and pass the $args
 and $url along as well.
