Research direction
Review the existing Twitter embed block implementation in the Gutenberg plugin, likely under packages/block library/src/embed/. Check the shortcode documentation for available options like media, thread, and language. Examine the issue comments for any specific requirements or design suggestions. Implement additional inspector controls to allow toggling these options.
