------- Comment #1 from Tim-Philipp Müller  2006-04-29 15:40 UTC -------
Rather: up until yesterday collectpads dropped newsegment events that they
received, but this was changed yesterday to make them forward newsegment events
instead.

This change doesn't seem right to me, as the newsegment events are crucial to
sink behaviour (ie. things outside of the segment will be dropped, or in the
case of filesinks newsegment events determine the seek position where to start
writing data).

So when the segments aren't exactly the same, downstream behaviour is not
really predictable and depends on which of the N upstream newsegment events
happens to arrive last.
