Why reffed with a doubled 'ff'. It comes from 'referenced' as in
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/referenced

Also what looks wrong to you - the naming or the functionality? We discussed
the nameing before. _nocopy would suggest that gst_pad_get_caps always copies
(which it does not).

Ideally we would rename gst_pad_get_caps() to gst_pad_get_writable_caps() if we
want to have such a utility function at all. gst_pad_get_caps_refed() is what
the actual gst_pad_get_caps() should have been.
