Create the ability to take videos from Vimeo, YouTube, blip.tv, etc and
add them to a Plumi site.
This will enable broader sharing of content. Videomakers will not have to
re-upload their video to another site (the Plumi site) if they have
already done so elsewhere. It will also allow site editors to curate
content from other sites into a Plumi site.
* external videos offered as same content type as ordinary videos, but
instead of uploading a video the user can add a link / embed code from
Vimeo, Youtube or other site
* ability to list external videos separately from normal videos on the
site (not sure yet in which listings we need to differentiate them)

Comment (by anna):
Mike suggests using the same PlumiVideo content type, with option to add
link / embed code instead of upload a file (but still be able to
differentiate these videos from normal videos, and thus list them
differently on the site), and also to split off the changes to publish
form into another ticket.
