My understanding of this is that it worked previously, but does not
currently work in 1.4?  This would make it a bug, so I don't see any
reason why it couldn't be merged in.

One of the biggest issues we face is testing stuff like this.  The
policy so far as been that it can go in as long as it doesn't break any
tests.  I don't think, however, that we have any tests covering Youtube
distribution...

Do you have more information about the licensing?  We have a few policy
documents in the wiki so this should be easy enough to sort out.

I'll bring this up tomorrow.  I'm not sure what composer is using that
for, but it might just be a dead dependency.
