I think it needs to be a bit more clever than the brief description (like, if a site redirects you somewhere, and then that site redirects you back, cookies from the middle ought to go in the original/final site's jar in order to match how it appears to the user). But I'd prefer that embedded YouTube videos don't act like I'm logged in unless I say to share that aspect.
