--- Comment #1 from Thiago Sousa Santos <thiagossantos at gmail.com> ---
Some time ago we discussed this on IRC and the conclusion is that this doesn't
represent a valid scenario.

If the application is changing the state of an element while upstream threads
are running freely it will cause unexpected side effects. The correct way to do
this is using pad probes and then change the state of the downstream elements
for whatever reason.

Anyway let's see if someone else has a different opinion on it.
