/**
 * SECTION:gstpreset
 * @short_description: helper interface for element presets
 *
 * This interface offers methods to query and manipulate parameter preset sets.
 * A preset is a bunch of property settings, together with meta data and a name.
 * The name of a preset serves as key for subsequent method calls to manipulate
 * single presets.
 * All instances of one type will share the list of presets. The list is created
 * on demand, if presets are not used, the list is not created.
 *
 * The interface comes with a default implementation that serves most plugins.
 * Wrapper plugins will override most methods to implement support for the
 * native preset format of those wrapped plugins.
 * One method that is useful to be overridden is gst_preset_get_property_names().
 * With that one can control which properties are saved and in which order.
 * When implementing support for read-only presets, one should set the vmethods
 * for gst_preset_save_preset() and gst_preset_delete_preset() to %NULL.
 * Applications can use gst_preset_is_editable() to check for that.
 *
 * The default implementation supports presets located in a system directory, 
 * application specific directory and in the users home directory. When getting
 * a list of presets individual presets are read and overlaid in 1) system, 
 * 2) application and 3) user order. Whenever an earlier entry is newer, the
 * later entries will be updated. 
 *

/* FIXME:
 * - non racyness
 *   - we need to avoid two instances writing the preset file
 *     -> flock(fileno()), http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~beej/guide/ipc/flock.html
 *     -> open exclusive
 *     -> better save the new file to a tempfile and then rename?
 *   - we like to know when any other instance makes changes to the keyfile
 *     - then ui can be updated
 *     - and we make sure that we don't lose edits
 *   -> its the same problem actually, once for inside a process, once system-
 *      wide
 *     - can we use a lock inside a names shared memory segment?
 *
 * - should there be a 'preset-list' property to get the preset list
 *   (and to connect a notify:: to to listen for changes)
 *   we could use gnome_vfs_monitor_add() to monitor the user preset_file.
 *
 * - should there be a 'preset-name' property so that we can set a preset via
 *   gst-launch, or should we handle this with special syntax in gst-launch:
 *   gst-launch element preset:<preset-name> property=value ...
 *   - this would allow to have preset-bundles too (a preset on bins that
 *     specifies presets for children
