create a bin, put in an element with a src pad, ghost the src pad to the bin
add a buffer probe to the ghost pad
it will never get called, because the real pad doesn't have a buffer probe; also
doesn't have a peer; so the real pad just drops the buffer

Possible solutions:
- if the real pad knows about the ghost pad, it can give the ghost pad a chance
somehow
- adding probes to a ghost pad should add the probes to the target pad
- something else ?
