           Summary: [GstPad] Provide more fine-grained linking methods
    Classification: Desktop
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)

     GNOME version: ---


Currently gst_pad_link unconditionally does a series of checks that could be
avoided when the caller knows they will never fail.

The following patches:
* add a new method for pad linking which allows to chose which checks could be
done at link time
* add a new utility method for link element pads which allows to chose which
checks should be done at link time
* does a check-less link when gstghostpad links its internal pad to the target.
