Comment (by dd32):

 I can confirm that iframes are not allowed in the API response, and I
 don't like the idea of allowing it either.

 The plugins readme is currently taking advantage of the `[youtube
 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYEQg-hZd58]` shortcode, which as far as I
 can tell, isn't documented anywhere.

 The best option here seems to be to drop support for that shortcode, and
 instead use WordPress's oEmbed support instead.
