It would be nice if Googtube would use valid "object" tags instead of invalid "embed" code. Is this possible? Anytime soon? A site I'm helping on is going into a competition (SOON!) where w3c validation is required. Best if it figured it out by the doctype of the theme in use, but also ok if it were a configuration option. Or, just switch over to object element for all doctypes.

Sorry... to be fair, lets say "deprecated" embed code...

From what I can see, it use -embed for google videos and -object for youtube. So, it should be ok. I don't think people use the video.google.com url anymore...
