Existing pipeline operators are all single char. It's possible to match a regex
instead, with a slightly bigger change to parse.l.
I'm not sure what single character might be a good one, so '!!' is probably
fine. Else, demux / multiqueue maybe?

Not really - it does one thing, you want it to do another. Not really a bug -
more a difference of opinion.

I'm more concerned about changing 10 year old behaviour causing even
harder-to-discover bugs.

Should do - a filtered link in the grammar just calls
gst_element_link_pads_filtered(), which will create a new capsfilter element
for each link.
