Description
Indefinite loading of Google Maps as a media type. I tried both the page URL and the share link.

Start in source/js/media/VCO.MediaType.js at the referenced match and reproduce the indefinite loading with both a Google Maps page URL and share link. Trace how each URL is recognized and loaded, then verify that both forms display a map instead of remaining in the loading state.
