 We already have jpegenc(broken)/dec and pngenc, how about implementing
 some more (pngdec, gif, maybe others)? We can copy the actual
 loading/saving code (this is only a few lines) from gdkpixbuf, of
 course, but it'd make us not depend on gdkpixbuf for this feature,
 which is a good thing if KDE would want to use such a feature later on.

+Good point.  We would only be using a fraction of gdk_pixbuf's capability.
+
+However, I have little interest in writing yet another generic image
+loader when gdk_pixbuf is readily usable.  So if I write it, it will
+use gdk_pixbuf directly.  If anyone cares, I can write it in such a
+way that the gdk_pixbuf code can be copied into GStreamer and used if
+gdk_pixbuf is not found on the system.
