Definetely, serializing values should be in text format (if it's a .ini or a
.xml). But what if the implementation decide to store it differently (using
trackerdb ;)

Seriously, I can read gchar *value in
http://buzztard.cvs.sourceforge.net/buzztard/gst-buzztard/src/preset/preset.h?revision=1.7&view=markup

What is that about? Why not have a GValue * or something better?

Alternatively, we could also think of GstPreset object, taking Gobject elements
and serializing properties in an internal database object,

gst_preset_save_properties (preset, tag, element)
gst_preset_load_properties (preset, tag, element)

Then each preset implementation might have a different backend:
GstPresetXML
GstPresetINI...
