> gst_element_register() with plugin==NULL.

Ah, right. how about adding some gst_element_register_static() and
gst_type_find_register_static() #defines then. Rationale:

 - it's more intuitive, IMHO

 - gst_type_find_register() currently doesn't accept plugin == NULL,
   and it's a bit awkward to allow it from 0.10.16 onwards and tell
   people to use _register(NULL, ...) instead - they're likely to
   get it wrong and not update the requirements, leading to problems
   when run against previous GStreamer versions. If you add a new
   function or define and recommend to use that it's clear that
   they need to update the version requirements, since otherwise
   it won't even compile.
