Indeed, playlist handling != playlist parsing.
eg. https://git.gnome.org//browse/totem/tree/src/totem-playlist.h !=
totem-pl-parser
The idea here would be for GstPlayer itself to have access to URLs and metadata
extracted from playlists.
This would include URLs, title, start time, subtitle URL (for external subs),
current video/audio/subtitle tracks, etc. and GstPlayer automatically handling
repeat and loop modes, and gapless transitions when possible.

I'd be happy to work on that, though it would really be a role-reversal (we
currently pass playlists to GStreamer when totem-pl-parser doesn't handle them,
rather than the opposite), but something similar to this would be the way to
populate the playlist support requested in this bug.
