I'm not applying this patch for 0.8.8. The patch is technically correct, but it
possibly breaks existing applications. Also, before going down this road, the
purpose of multifilesrc should be discussed. Especially, if we want it to become
a multi-variant of filesrc, we should make it a subclass.

Zaheer has a good point, but it's unclear why we wouldn't just use filesrc for
that. Downside is that file list management moves to the application. However,
Dave's comment is correct too, the implied purpose of multifilesrc is for
JPEG-to-MPEG or so, and that breaks with this patch. Therefore, not for 0.8.8,
possibly not for 0.8.x at all.
