Comment (by westonruter):

 @timmydcrawford I found a problem when the URL field has whitespace at the
 beginning: the oEmbed preview doesn't show up. What if we trimmed the
 whitespace out of the underlying `url` in the model? Like in
 [attachment:40771.4.diff]? This implementation is not ideal because the
 non-trimmed value still appears in the field and momentarily populates the
 model. It would be better if we could just strip whitespace on `input`,
 preventing whitespace from the field altogether.
