Token support without enabling flashvideo for a node type- as an input filter?

I have a content type called 'video' which I use for uploading and converting videos to flv. I use CCK fields to attach my video files.

I want to be able to embed a flashvideo in other node types (page, for example). However, the only way to do this is to enable flashvideo for page nodes. The problem with this is that I do not want to allow the uploading of videos through page nodes - I want that restricted to my specific 'video' node type. If I enable flashvideo for 'page' nodes, in order to allow me to use the token, then I get an error every time I try to create/edit a page because I have not defined the CCK fields that flashvideo is looking for.

Warning: The required file fields are not yet defined for this content type.
Please visit the FlashVideo settings for this content type and follow the instructions before proceeding.

Perhaps the [video] token support should be moved to an input filter - this would allow it to be used on any node type, without needing to enable flashvideo for that node type.
