Embed video without a token #15

Currently an API token is required to embed a vimeo video in aframe/webvr. It would be nice if I didn't need to use a token at all. I would have expected this since I can embed a vimeo video on a webpage without a token.
(This is just my perspective as a user, I am sure you have good reasons for why it is how it is!!)

As a developer the primary problem with needing a token is that it then requires that I also have a webserver for an aframe+vimeo project which is a substantial obstacle (surmountable with time and effort, but requires maintenance and additional risks, so I guess people will only do it for bigger projects... or using glitch).

Maybe there could be a middle path where a token is not required for the most basic use case, or is limited in some way. Thanks for your consideration of this feature request.

Thanks for the info @topherzee. I understand that having a server means extra time and work, but as mentioned in the previous issue (#13) having an API token acssesable in your client side code poses a security threat and could quite easily be comprimised. Is remixing on Glitch not simple enough in your opinion?
