When editing a text, select some text and click "Insert...", a dialog opens, select "Insert Video Embed", Clip/in/out/id is pre-populated from the most recently selected item. "Show Advanced Options" is a checkbox at the bottom of the dialog content. In the bottom left corner of the dialog, there is a "Pick Clip..." button, which opens a new dialog that says: Just navigate to an item/editor, select in/out/id, and click "Embed".

When in editor view, there is an "Embed..." option which opens a dialog, one can select "Embed in Text" and "Embed on External Site" (URL, iframe, plus advanced options). For "Embed in Text", the most recently selected text is pre-populated, other options are all other editable text, plus "New Text". Below, one sees the context, i.e. the most recently selected span, or cursor position, of the selected text. Clicking "Embed" redirects back to the text, the text is in editing mode, the selection/cursor is set, and the "Insert Video Embed" dialog opens again.

Every embeddable view needs to have this functionality, via main menu.

One slight variation would be to give the dialog opened in editor view the full embed-builder functionality from the dialog opened in the texts section -- as you'd want this functionality when creating an external embed.
