= Better tag reading / writing =

== Background ==

Currently tag reading and writing in GStreamer is slow and not optimal.

For writing tags you have to demux and mux files again, for reading tags you have to build a complete pipeline that could as well decode the file and actually decode until the first buffer is received.
This definitely can be improved somehow, maybe by specialized elements (including autoplugging), new interfaces that could be implemented by the current elements (to prevent code duplication), ...
