I've proposed this before: each track has its own pad, the pad has a
name associated with it (possibly two- or three-letter country-codes,
which can then be i18n'ed by APPS, there's a RFC or ISO spec somewhere
that describes all of them), and the app then gives a list of all
available pads with human-readable name and plugs in the right one
(probably using the switch element).

audio_00[nl]\
audio_01[en]-switch-...
audio_02[de]/

I'm not sure how perfect this is for autoplugging, but it's definately
GStreamer'ish. If I want, I need to be able to select multiple of them,
and that's now possible (think multilingual DVD transcoding).
