Bug Description

I took the liberty of adding an oembed option to the API. It only works for the JSON format for now and when enabled (?oembed=1&format=json&url=...) the API return an HTML representation for the given URL. It can be a thumbnail, video player, sound clip, etc. See http://oohembed.com/ for the full list of supported web hosts and http://oembed.com/ for the oembed spec.

The patch was generated with
$ diff -wEBu ../index.php index.php >longurl-oembed-oohembed.patch

I didn't really take the time yet to figure out bzr, sorry.

I'm also submitting a patch to laconica so identica can enable this feature.
