[Bug 740432] valve drop=true doesn't allow EOS to flow downstream.

--- Comment #4 from Olivier Crête <olivier.crete at ocrete.ca> ---
After EOS, you could flush and re-connect some other branch. Forwarding flushes
is also scary because you could be in the middle of modifying the the
downstream pipeline and have the flush start and stop go to different places.
If someone plays with a valve, they need to figure out flushing I think. It was
really designed to make dynamic pipelines a bit easier and not as a mute
switch. 

Possibly we need a "muter" element for the other use-case, maybe one that
replaces buffers with gap events.
