#25820: [embed] shortcode can't be escaped like others

WordPress allows the use of double brackets to escape shortcodes, so that
entering {{{[}}}{{{[}}}foo{{{]}}}{{{]}}} in your page or post displays
[foo]. This works great for most shortcodes, and is used in the following
way on enclosed shortcodes: {{{[}}}[foo]Hello![/foo]{{{]}}}
However, this feature fails when trying to use it with core's 'embed'
shortcode.
To replicate:
Enter the following in a page or post:
{{{[}}}{{{[}}}embed{{{]}}}http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLO7tCdBVrA[/embed{{{]}}}{{{]}}}
What I expect to see:
[embed]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLO7tCdBVrA[/embed]
What I really see:
(null)
(Apologies for the weird mix of [, ], and special characters here. had a
hard time with getting the markup to render as I wanted.)
