Indeed.

Not the component framework please :-) But we do need something, I
agree. There's a media device allocator API that was meant to care for
this kind of use cases, but I'm not happy with the implementation, we
need something better. We can discuss it later once you'll have a need
for that.

OK, that sounds good.
