I also support this idea and adding the new retry count and interval properties
to adaptivedemux.

First we need to discuss how to report errors from the http source to other
elements. I'd be in favor of doing this using a GstMessage. One option is to
post a GstMessage before the error message with the details of the http
failure, it should have the same sequence number as the error message to
identify both as being the same error reporting. The other option (which was
suggested by Tim, and I'd prefer) is to extend GStreamer's Error message to
support having more details about the failure.
