Comment (by redsweater):

 Replying to [comment:30 Viper007Bond]:
 > If they want to make a link, then they should insert a link, e.g. `<a
 href="YouTube URL">YouTube URL</a>`. Those won't be embedded, only plain
 text URLs will be.

 Good point. I assumed the gist of the @yosefeliezrie's argument was that
 pasting plain links that are not embeddable does autolink them. If it were
 true then "stealing" that behavior for a special class of URLs that get
 unilaterally embedded could be a problem. But in my test just now it
 doesn't like for example pasting "http://trac.wordpress.org" as a
 standalone URL into a document, even on its own line, doesn't lead to it
 to be autolinked or receiving any special treatment at all.
