--- Comment #3 from Edward Hervey <bilboed at bilboed.com> ---
There are actually cases where it helps for them to not be immutable.

Until an element actually "pushes out" the GstStream object (via messages or
events), it can still change its properties.

An example is creating the GstStream object very early on, and then refining
the information as you discover it (which might be in a later stage in that
element).

Furthermore, you can (as an element) subclass GstStream (avoiding duplicating
all the information present in it). Making those properties construct-only
might make life harder in those cases.
