Comment (by webdevmattcrom):

 Absolutely awesome idea. As many others have said, I'd say it has to be
 predicated on a couple things:

 1) No iFrames. Because @Ipstenu is right. Embedding that way runs the risk
 of embedding stuff you don't want, like Ads or other things.
 2) Needs to be generated from WP-API. Yes, FB and others use meta tags,
 and any WP Admin who's paying attention uses a theme or plugin to manage
 that for them. But that's not handled natively in Core, so this feature
 needs to be fully functional just on Core code, which the WP-API would
 allow for.
 3) Totally agree that they need to be easily CSS-able for theme
 compatibility.

 If all those things are handled well, this could really help "Democratize
 Publishing" much further. Of course there's the risk that it goes the way
 of the 90's animated Gif and get easily abused, but that shouldn't prevent
 a good idea from seeing the light of day IMHO.
