I see a good intention there :) Saddly I don't think it's enough, except 
gstreamer maintainers want to drop 0.1. On the other hand there are still 
quite some packages using libgstreamer0.1.

I know what you mean, but once again: libgstreamer is a build-time dependency, 
so no, it can't be an optional.

That's perfectly fine, and please don't hesitate to do it again if you feel 
it's needed :)

My questions arises from the fact that I need to evaluate whether this 
wishlist bug is applicable or not, so I need to do them :)
