+Summary: missing plugins should be automatically downloaded/installed
+
+When you try to open a file and gstreamer misses the plugin to load it, it
+should warn the user about the missing plugin(s) and ask whether he wants
+to download/install them automatically. This would make it easier to play
+DivX and MP3 files on systems like RedHat which don't provide those plugins
+for legal reasons. It would also help people read videos without having to
+install zillions of plugins themselves.
