YouTube Flash plug-in replacement facility should more gracefully handle malformed queries

Some YouTube Flash embeds use '&' instead of '?' to start the query portion of the URL. Here's an example: http://www.youtube.com/v/dQw4w9WgXcQ&start=4

Our implementation drops everything including and after the &. Instead, we should treat the & like a ? and restore the query when we're done. If we do this, it means embeds for a particular timecode will be preserved.
