We already do basic previews of external public urls with their page title, it would be fairly simply to extend this to grab other metadata for better previews.

  • favicons

  • meta description

  • open graph type, images and text

  • twitter previews

  • Previews would only be generated if a setting was on

  • OR if an extra argument was passed into the crawl api (ie called by 3rd party code)

  • expose an new api for other plugins to which does a synchronous ajax preview call
