Direct posting to Twitter, Facebook, etc.

You currently have to download your video file and upload it to Twitter or Facebook separately. It would be nice to have built-in share buttons that send you to the share dialog with the video already set up. Not sure whether this is feasible or what it would entail.

From Facebook's docs:

"If you're sharing photos or videos rather than links, you will need to create a custom interface that lets people post to their own timeline, which requires implementing Facebook Login and requesting the publish_actions permission."

From Twitter's docs, it looks like an OAuth'ed user can upload a video with a multipart POST:
