Well, if we pick an API, app writers will have to do one of two things:

1) Use the backend API directly, or
2) Use a KDE-provided wrapper for simplicity.

If we do number 2), then making it 'pluggable' is almost free, so I'll assume 
you'd rather have option 1). ;)

But if we do option 1), our app developers could be stuck with a lame API.  I 
say this because if we had to vote *NOW* on a MM backend, I would have to 
vote gstreamer.  But then we're stuck trying to use a pure C-level API. :-(
