Nobody uses it apart from us. The only really interesting thing in
monkey-media is the metadata reader/writer.

I actually wanted to use the BaconVideoWidget (or the planned
BaconVideoObject) inside Rhythmbox, probably having Rhythmbox depend on
libbacon. That would allow both Totem-gst and Rhythmbox to actually grow
and make a widget that would be usable by the wider range of developers.

That's why I'd like some comments on the API and current featureset of
the video widget.

Cheers
