There's plugin writing documentation at:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/totem/unstable/
including a tutorial that Philip wrote.

There's already a GStreamer plugin for equalisers, called "equalizer".

The main problem here is have your plugin be able to add a new element
to the GStreamer pipeline. That would require some changes to the
BaconVideoWidget code (which lives in src/backend).
