Hey can I request an instagram embed feature similar to the youtube one.

Would anyone else find this useful?

there are lots of other problems and features the admins could address before tackling this, but i don't disagree that it might be cool or useful.

what are some other websites that have this feature?

Instagram, like youtube provides it's own embed code. Obviously you don't want users pasting code into the text editor, but a box like the youtube one where they enter the image url which is then placed into the embed code before posting would be the way.

So a box reading: "Enter a link for Instgram post". then you past in something like so:

The only example I can think of is a custom Wordpress post admin area.
