One thing missing from your implementation is being able to change the priority
of an already running thread may also be useful. For example, we may not know
if a file contains audio or video before it has been demuxed. Or to implement
event-based handling, the event will probably not be produced before the
threads are started if there is autoplugging. I'm not really sure how to
implement that in a flexible way.

As for the event based stuff, maybe we could have a generic event that triggers
a callback for each pad traversed (or each pad that has a task), that said,
this wont work for non-pad tasks.
