Title:
  google apps urls change frequently and difficult to maintain

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The google apps plugin requires a significant amount of upkeep. Google
  regularly change the urls they display to their users, and these urls
  are the ones which get put into the blocks; the users cannot be
  expected to know better.

  Options we have include:
  - move to the safeiframe method
  - use a syndicated filter list
  - enable the filter list to be configurable
  - find an external api which can be updated without requiring us to trigger a new point version

  We need a better way to do this from 1.6 on.
