I'd love to see proof of any of that considering we run videos from both on
more than 30 blogs and haven't seen any of these negative impacts.
I'm not saying it *doesn't* happen, just that it seems odd, and I haven't
yet seen it :)

Have they actually ever confessed to doing that? I mean, YouTube and Google
both provide the code required to add such a box to a website or blog....

Be very careful with these. Both YouTube and Google Video will begin
crashing Web browsers after a while (been a victim of both), having
'HotLinked' for a while, despite fair use. In the case of Google, there
will be a PageRank depletion (or a drop to 0), as well as ranking
penalties, backlinks depletion and unhappy visitors whose browsers crash
(even Konqueror) until the offensive code is removed. Some people seem to'
survive' the embedment of such videos, but I don't know how...
Oh! and ma will very be disappoint to see theat the object markup does not
validate! *smile* It is rarely (if ever) W3C standards-compliant.

I don't have a decent suggestion because I don't know TinyMCE's internals.
However, if your use a JavaScript pop-up to prompt for URL (e.g.
http://www.youtube.com/v/hl2UUunlI2Q ), try to wrap it with classes and
put some of the remainder [style] attribute in an auxiliary stylesheet. It
might help in preventing the nasty newlines...?
Best wishes,
