This looks quite good now. I'll ping marc-andre - lets discuss this on monday in
irc.

Here's my list of issues that I would like to see going it still:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353680

I think v4l2src can be freed from --enable-experimental, its works quite well
(for my cam and for e.g. the cam in the N800).
