Something like this came up on irc recently: the current problem is that
not all packages are listed in gnome-app-install, and there are some
very requested packages that appear in the documentation (such as the
gstreamer plugins). Martin Vogt suggested that we could make single
packages like these appear in g-a-i, and this might be a decent idea for
Multimedia Codecs. Please file a bug about this. We should include all
the potential extra gstreamer plugins if possible (ugly, bad, whatever
they are currently called).
