Comment (by blobfolio):

 Also, just in case it wasn't clear, this patch only fixes the embed
 handling for ''local'' media (files users have uploaded), and only going
 forward; it won't retroactively fix any existing files that aren't named
 correctly.

 One kind of overhead we definitely want to avoid is any sort of detailed
 parsing ''inside'' embed or shortcode handlers. Since those are run in
 loops, and run every time post content is parsed, inefficiencies there
 could scale to monstrous levels. Haha.
