    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Problem: When editing a page with an embedded YouTube video, you don't really get a good feel of what the page will look like when you save it.

      Solution:
      We should be able to modify the widget connector code to make use of the Confluence 4 rendererd placeholder API: https://developer.atlassian.com/display/CONFDEV/Providing+an+image+as+a+macro+placeholder+in+the+editor

      YouTube provides a dead simple way to get the image of your video:

      So when you are editing the page you should now get a rendered placeholder with an image of what it should look like!
