Comment 8 for bug 43319

Some points to reply to your flood of comment:
- usually playing with the bug settings against the maintainers willing will not force them to accept your opinion but rather make them ignore you or conflict on that rather discussing on the bug, better to argue to get them changing those than trying to force them by yourself
- the codebase is not the same, the visualizations come from libxine and gstreamer, goom for totem-gstreamer is by example:
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good: /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstgoom.so
- upstream keep feature request because they are the guys who write the code and where a new feature is likely to be coded, we do packaging, stabilization, integration, bug fixing, etc so we have no interest to keep feature requests we will no work on
- usually we forward feature request upstream but that one is a collection of different issue, with no precise points and with most assigned to wrong place
- if you want feel free to show that bug to the sabdfl, look at the launchpad list, there is lot of bugs to fix but few people working on them so it'll take time and we have to prioritize the work, he probably knows about that
- I don't think people will stop using the video player because it has not good visualization, they watch videos with it

Now you want try something? Open the same bug you opened here on bugzilla.gnome.org and wait if upstream has a better reply for it, upstream is the right place to get that worked anyway
