 v4l, etc) use generic caps, too.
 
 Current behaviour would need a rerun of gst_register everytime you
 change hardware.
 
 Somebody change the component to gst-plugins please.

+oss, v4l and v4l already do generic caps on their templates. v4l2,
+additionally, implements a get_caps function that is hardware_specific
+and only works if the device is opened (which happens on NULL->READY).
+oss, alsa, xv et all should probably do this too, if needed at all...
+v4l doesn't need it, there's no sane way of implementing it.
