 * This is a wonderful plugin, but to work within theme I would like to be able 
   to set the Post Format (like you can for regular posts) to “video”. In the code
   can I set all External Video posts to be have the post-format = video?

 * You can either add post format support to the post type:
    [http://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Formats#Adding_Post_Type_Support](http://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Formats#Adding_Post_Type_Support)
 * Or I think it makes more sense to just have the post type mimic the display of
   the video post format.
