+if (!GST_PAD_IS_USABLE) gst_element_error(); or so?
+
+We could do this for every plugin, and I don't really want to check
+for this in every plugin. Any unconnected pad means a broken pipeline
+anyway, the application should check for that.
+
+I mean, what's the use of an unconnected pad in this case? The
+pipeline still won't do a thing. So?...
+
+GST_PAD_IS_USABLE() is only useful for multi-pad elements such as
+avidemux, mpegdemux etc.
