Suggestions for Breezy...

Actually I did answer but not to the list so here is my answer:

Gnome 2.12 (which I think will be used in Breezy, as Gnome's schedule
is almost the same as Ubuntu's) no longer uses esd but gstreamer.  See
http://www.gnome.org for further information about that.

You should go on http://www.gnome.org and suggest it to the Gnome
project. I think it's more Gnome issue than Ubuntu's
