One problem though: Tagging support in GStreamer will _not_ work with the 
current stable 0.6 branch. It absolutely requires what is currently cvs HEAD or 
0.7.

Sure. I'm doing it for vorbis and mp3 for testing as those 2 formats are as 
different as you can get. After it is in, we definitely need people to update 
elements for all other formats.
