wp-admin/media.php: allow to add a default src

[mostyk]

something like

in file wp-admin/media.php :

function type_url_form_image($image_url) {

.
.
.
<input id="src" name="src" value="'.$image_url.'" type="text"
.
.
.

}

might be helpful because the function can be reused for plugins

[kurtpayne]

If this is being used for a plugin, is this something that can also be solved in the plugin?

add_action( 'type_url_form_media' , 'myplugin_add_src' );
function myplugin_add_src( $html ) {
	return $html . '<script>jQuery("#src").val("my image source here");</script>';
}

Note: In 3.3 type_url_form_image() has been deprecated in favor of wp_media_insert_url_form() but the hook is still named type_url_form_image.

It does seem that the type_url_form_media filter could be used to replace or append to the output of wp_media_insert_url_form(). Feel free to reopen if this is still a concern.
