 Well, according to that reasoning the packages should not be shown and instead
only the plug-in list should be there. I don't think we're going to do that.

 The reason I had less of a concern about gstreamer is because here most of them
are in fact pieces of the same project (like kodi, xorg, matchbox, etc). The
others (python, php, ...) are really external plugins. Of course there are also
some "external" plugins here, but even those tend to get absorbed by the
superproject eventually (like what happened with gst-omx for instance).

 Still,
