So, if GStreamer is that good with realtime, you have a big promotional 
problem, since almost every professional audio user uses Jack and Ardour for 
recording multitrack.
Can GStreamer do 5ms latency? With a desktop running in the back? With a 
full-featured desktop like kde in the back?
If the answer is yes, then you probably don't have all the decoding and 
video-to-sound-synchronising features kde needs...

I am not against GStreamer, I am all for it being supported. I just want to 
say that professional audio and a framework suitable for normal desktop usage 
are different pairs of shoes.
