That makes sense to me. I was thinking of having a "server" property where you
could pass in an existing server. Combined with the "path" property, that
should give us what we want. If we did that, we'd probably want to either
remove the "path" property, or make it not work if the "server" is also set.

The downside to this is that other elements may expect sinks to have a single
static sink pad.
