It can already do that using:
* GStreamer network clocks
(http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer-libs/html/gstreamer-net.html)
* gdp elements (to (de)serialize buffers/events) along with tcp elements

You can then split up your pipeline into sub-pipelines accross several
machines, have the clocks synchronized and the data flow happening
through tcp+gdp.

That's how flumotion does distributed pipelines (one machine does
capture, another encoding/muxing, another distributing, all of them
appearing as one massive distributed pipeline).

  Another idea ?
