Effects are already in a separate package from cheese - they are just
gstreamer effecttv filters.
And cheese is just a effect selector and gstreamer pipeline builder,
and it would be nice to use this interface.

my v4lsink in fact can send to loopback device everething that cheese
can and more, but user have to specify pipeline string on his own.
