Embedding iframe/vimeo - is there a way?

I have v 3.4 ckeditor running with embed plugin.

However, it seems that ckeditor is not handling a vimeo iframe embed code.
eg:

<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/14352658"; width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/14352658">Timelapse Montage</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/mikeflores">Mike Flores</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>;

Shows up pretty much blank except for the links when pasted into the embed plugin dialog.

Anyone know of a workaround or approach to supporting iframes?

CKEditor doesn't ship with an "embed" plugin. If you are using a third party plugin named embed, contact them for support. If you mean a different plugin that does ship with CKEditor, please find out it's correct name and make that clear or if you mean you can't paste your code into a CKEditor source mode editing block, then remove the ";" at the end of your code and check that you don't have a html filter (Typically found running in a CMS,) which filters out suspicious tags like IFRAME.
Pasting your code into a source mode pane without the trailing ";" works fine here and switching to WYSIWYG mode afterwards displays the vimeo embed.

If you are just looking for a easy way to deal with embeds from Vimeo, youtube, etc (Unless you are unfortunately equating an embed to be the sum or majority of your page's content) then Ceebox is the javascript to hook into instead of using iframes IMO.
