If, for example, one presses s on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yWeMIALolY the default result is to
save a file named "Jack Parow ft.<foo>"

I would assume that the regex is looking for the first period, rather than the last.
I don't know how to remedy that, myself.

we could just strip out the dots.. that seems reasonable

on second thought, the problem is not in the youtube scraper itself, but in the save command and the
filename generation logic.  the youtube scraper correctly stores the title of the video.  it wouldn't
be correct to go changing the title as i suggested previously because the title could be used for
other purposes.
