Can I ask to discuss more about this thing? 
Actually, we've designed this element due to support a kind of strange feature
in playbin. 

It could be weird, but the requirement was from the legacy services. 

The requirement is that each video and audio streams are given as element
streams and the upper layer of pipeline should be compatible with normal
playback. 

So we are designing a source element including multiple appsrc and funnel. 
To serialize element streams, we will use funnel in the source element, then we
will connect the element to decodebin. In side of decodebin, we will deploy
another "stream id demux". 

To archive this structure, I think we need real demuxer like element more than
current streamiddemux.

In this matter, how about using a name, "reverse-funnel" or "defunnel" for this
patch, and then, reserve "stream-id-demux" for the future real demux element?
