Remove button for embeded items

Just do a mu-plugins for edit the KSES Filter ?

There is no reason to have a functionality in the core which requires a plugin in order to work....

IMHO the easiest way to to fix this is to remove 'media' from the $plugins and $mce_buttons_2 arrays in tiny_mce_config.php

I disagree as in this case media also included uploaded images.

drmiketemp, with which part do you disagree, removing the button from the tinymce, or the hack?

Added remove_tinymce_media_button() in [1392]. If you want the original behaviour, you can remove the filter using this line of code:

remove_filter( 'mce_buttons_2', 'remove_tinymce_media_button' );

Add that in a function called by init.
