Not for me. When I'm uploading a video even when it's at 0% I see "The URL of your uploaded video will be: blah"

So it seems you can get the URL immediately... maybe then stop the upload mess with the video and then resume the upload... but I assume the resume feature takes a hash or something to make sure it's the same file..

Yes, I thought I saw this too many years ago when I was making youtube videos, and uploading would be slow or broken. Although I never tried changing the video after getting the URL.
