Hi, the idea isn't so bad, but it's not what we want. Specifically, if Xv is
not available but the plugin isn't installed, it'll fail.

I've added an 'autovideosink' to CVS a few days ago which fixes this by
explicitely setting the element to READY for testing. If that fails, it tests
another one, all this rank-based (so it could work for any kind of videosink,
not just xv/x). We intend to make this the default sink in gconf. There's also
a 'gconfvideosink' that totem would then use (instead of
gst_gconf_get_default_video_sink()), so that it doesn't need to hardlink to the
gstgconf library anymore.
