re: #583 simoom
Ah, it worked :P. Ended up using that GET oembed thing with some regular expressions to clean up all the weird escape sequences and unnecessary extra bits.
That’s the same code you get by using the “Embed this Tweet” option. It’s just a blockquote with some special classes - the Twitter API Javascript (loaded by LGF at page load) looks for those tags and replaces them with the code to produce the embedded tweet.
