That's the idea*. As far as I recall, it's not (yet) supported on the
Squid 3 branch.

* To be clear, any Squid is capable of caching videos without using
videocache or Store URL rewriting. The trouble comes in from the fact
that the popular video sites serve the same video from multiple
different domains, so you may end up caching multiple copies of the same
video (since they are different URLs) without the above mentioned trickery.
