I understand the xine/gstreamer distinction - they are likely in a different 
format, or something, hence incompatible.

But the ones using xine/mplayer codecs, couldn't they just all 
use /usr/lib/codecs and not be dependencies, so that they don't need to get 
upgraded every time the program does, and only when the actual codecs are 
upgraded?
