[Bug 768586] glimagesink: on Raspberry Pi seems to get elected by playbin even if it does not support set_window_handle

[GStreamer (GNOME Bugzilla)]

--- Comment #10 from Tim-Philipp Müller <t.i.m at zen.co.uk> ---
Question is though what will it do to performance for everyone just doing some
command line stuff or gst-play/playbin ? It will force worst-performing code
paths then, no? I think applications should set xvimagesink/ximagesink etc.
themselves depending on the windowing system they target.

Perhaps GstVideoOverlay::set_window_id/handle should gain a _full() function
that adds a string identifying the handle / windowing system. Then
autovideosink could somehow (element details *handwave*) try suitable sinks
first. </random ideas>
