this reply is a summary of what I told to Reza on IRC :

I don't plan to integrate this patch in esound code, mainly because
esound backend choice is done at compilation time, which restrict a lot
the usefulness of this patch. BTW, there is a somehow similar patch for
arts support in bugzilla and I did the same analysis.

Again, I don't comment on the patch quality but on its usefulness
regarding esound current state (and since esound development is almost
dead, I don't think it will change whatsoever..).
