--- Comment #4 from Tim-Philipp Müller <t.i.m at zen.co.uk> ---
This is going to cause a lot of overhead, I wonder if it's really worth it?

The problem with this data is that it's just a LOT of data - does it really
help figure out leaks in non-trivial pipelines?

The difficult part in GStreamer is usually to figure out leaks when ownership
transfer occured, and this patch doesn't help with that (not meant as a
criticism, that was not the goal I presume, just an observation :)).
