 Replying to [comment:1 helen]:
 > Reloading/refreshing an individual embed is interesting to me, although
 I'm not sure it's a huge issue across the board for most users. I'd
 probably look at doing it within your plugin for the time being. Open to
 thoughts, though.

 I just spent 30 minutes trying to figure out why a video still overwrote
 half the page after installing the iFramely plugin, which has always
 worked well in the past. Thankfully I found the answer in one of the many
 support answers they've given to other people with the same problem. I was
 able to go into the database and delete _oembed_ postmeta to force WP to
 re-generate the embed code.

 I really appreciate the efforts to find a solution! :)
