Yes, absolutely.

The g_main_loop is required even if you are using the sync bus handler. Some stuff may work without a main loop, but many others (such as signals, messages, etc…) won’t. All pipelines may run in the same context/loop.

Not really, if you know how to handle a single pipeline, you should be fine with several pipelines. My only comment is regarding the sync handlers, is there a strong reason for using them? If not, applications should prefer bus watches and/or poll functions.

You may be interested in this project of ours, it is a daemon that lets you handle several pipelines. It exposes a TCP API so that you can control it from your application.
