Description

I was reading this ( http://apiblog.youtube.com/2011/01/introducing-javascript-player-api-for.html) and noticed that there's now an iFrame API:

 http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/iframe_api_reference.html

It's missing a bunch of stuff, but I think we could make it work assuming we a.) stick with the native controls on iOS and b.) the player resizes to fill the iFrame.

They don't guarantee all of the functions work, but perhaps enough do?

Note the API is still marked experimental today.

Seems like it is getting pretty stable. Not going to be a 6.0 thing, but we'll definitely look into it for a subsequent JW6 release.
