Should playsink "send-event-mode" be exposed by playbin too?

[Enrique Ocaña González]

Hello,

I'm currently working to add Media Source Extensions support to WebKit. Our 
GStreamer pipeline uses a playbin, which contains a playsink with audio and video bins 
that contain the audio and video sinks, respectively.

As part of the work to implement seek support, I need the reset-time event to reach 
both the audio and the video bins in the playsink. Playsink has a "send-event-mode" 
property[1] that can be tuned, but the playbin sets it to "mode-first" by default.

I can locate the playsink element inside the pipeline manually and set the property to 
"mode-default", but I wonder if that's the right way to do it. 

Shouldn't that setting be exposed by the playbin as a property on its own, so that I can 
avoid messing with the implementation details (playsink) of the playbin? Or is asking for 
the playsink a usual practice?

Thanks in advance for your comments.
