The thing is that only spaces seem to be escaped, not brackets etc.

The cleaner fix would undoubtedly have been to unescape the string once before
parsing and then parse it in the usual way, but that would have been much less
straight-forward and more error-prone IMHO, because of the gchar **end out
parameter in gst_structure_new_from_string() and related functions (you can't
just add the number of escaped spaces to the end-pointer-in-the-unescaped-string
because it's not easy to know how many of the escaped spaces are in the parsed
part of the string and how many are in the part of the string after *end etc.).

Anyway, committed and changed as suggested.

Cheers
 -Tim
