yeah, I saw that comment too.. but was unsure about the scenario where this
would need to be a copy.
I think maybe to avoid buffer exhaustion in case of a vsink element that can
only allocate a fixed number of buffers. And even in that case the vsink
should fall back to malloc'd buffers and dropping frames or doing a copy
internally.
So I still think it is better to use refcnt'ing. And if using a copy is a
workaround for some specific video sink, then that should be fixed separately
in the video sink.
