Description chardee 2010-10-08 05:13:55 UTC 
Often people send me youtube links via chat or whatever and I like to watch them in Totem. Unfortunately I can't directly copy the url into the File -> Open Location, as it gives me a 'need html/text' plugin error. I have to manually search via the youtube plugin to watch the video.

I'm not sure if this is just a bug or a usability issue but it's something that seems particularly annoying.

Thanks!
