I'd like to use this mail as a chance to make everyone aware that we need a 
general way for track selection that is autopluggable. There are video formats 
out there that support multiple tracks of the same type, when you only want 
one. (Most likely audio and subtitles in different languages - most prominent 
for DVD, but there's ogm, too.)
If anyone has an idea on how to achieve that in an autopluggable way, please 
speak up. When it's done, users should be able to select from a list of 
supported formats for every element that supports this somehow. (Maybe an 
interface?)
