Package: gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
Version: 0.10.4-0.1
Severity: wishlist

As of version 0.10.4, upstream authors of Jack and GStreamer have
started including a jacksink with gst-plugins-bad.  Could you please
enable it in the Debian build?

This plugin is useful for people doing professional audio production
on Linux, since gstreamer is a defacto standard for desktop audio and
multimedia, while JACK is the standard for Linux's growing number of
professional and semi-pro audio production tools.

Use case: I like to use Quod Libet and other gstreamer-enabled players
to listen to my large library of other people's music, but my audio
interfaces are controlled by JACK while I am using audio production
tools like Ardour and Jamin.  It is currently not possible for me to
be recording a guitar player via ardour, and simultaneously pop up
Quod Libet to play back a track of my favorite guitar music to compare
the guitar's recorded tone, for example. 

With the jacksink enabled, I can reconfigure Quod Libet to send its
output through Jack and switch back and forth between my recording
project and previously-recorded material easily.

Thanks,
Bill Gribble
