Replying to Can't quote videos

I've noticed that if somebody embeds a video and I want to reply to the video, but they didn't type anything in their post, I can't quote it. If I click the quote reply and type up a response then go to hit post, it gives me an error saying that I need to quote text. I understand if you don't want the same video being repeatedly quoted as that is annoying, but I think there should be a way to quote the person who is posting the video so others know who you are responding to.
