Shouldn't this be an element? E.g., I'd love to be able to do "filesrc
location=blablabla.mp3 ! mad ! audiosink", and have it automatically
select my preferred audiosink. Same for audiosrc, videosrc (I'm planning
to work on that), etc. That's useful for applications, since they don't
need to bother, everything will just work when the gconf property is set
to 'audiosink' (or make that 'autodetect' or so).

It should be possible using some magic and ghost pads, right?

Ronald
