Yes, that was Jorn. It's a bit before time to bring GStreamer in at the
developer platform level, though. Perhaps if someone wants to give it some
dlopen() loving, we can have everything going via GStreamer, without relying
on it in the devel platform.

Hard to know what that will win us, though. For bleepy-bleeps, most people
without cool audio hardware will still be using esd anyway, so it will just
be another level of indirection (with nice config stuff though, which is
great).

Always cool stuff ahead. ;-)
