That would then be in addition to the segment event sending, since that one
still needs to update timing info as needed by e.g. GstCollectPads2.

See for example dvdsubdec as mentioned above.  One might argue whether or not
it is really needed there, but would prefer not to be caught with being able to
convey less info than was possible in 0.10 without considering it a lot more
(rather than solving it by disabling).

Also, seeing an event with update=TRUE coming true might then as well signal
that the stream is sparse.
