Further debugging shows that the processing of the YouTube URLs seems to 
be fine to some extend (it doesn't support the youtu.be url shortener 
yet, but this is a different and quite easy issue), but the issue is 
with the rendered player:

- the HTML video tag does not support YouTube URLs
- FlowPlayer doesn't support YouTube URLs out of the box

This raises some issues about why we should have the new media content 
element:

- it is certainly not backwards compatible
- we had a nice flash based video player without license issues which 
worked very well; what is the added value of FlowPlayer?
- the flexform interface is highly confusing for editors to work with
- how will we add support for all the video sites which are supported by 
the mediaWizardCoreProvider? Who will do this?
