After further investigation with gst-inspect and various discussions:

vp8enc: "threads" property = int range(0, 64), default 1
x264enc: "threads" property = int range(0, 4), default 0 (automanaged)
theoraenc: none (I'm told libtheora will only have threading in 1.3)
xvidenc: none
mpeg2enc: none
diracenc: none
schroenc: none (I am told it is automanaged)
ffmpeg plugins: automanaged, but gst-ffmpeg sets the default to 1*
entropywave plugins: automanaged
etc.

...So now I guess I'm left wondering what the next step is. Just put a "special
case" hack in pitivi to force the number of threads in vp8enc to the desired
maximum?
