Just curious: why was FFmpeg dropped in the first case? The current
Gstreamer thumbnailer is pretty much useless for me unless I install
the gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg package which obviously passes the job back
to FFmpeg in the end.

Small related nitpick: the Gstreamer movie thumbnails don't have a
movie strip overlay like the ones generated via FFmpeg had. Any way to
bring this back?
