Isn't that what the gst-plugins-meta package does?

RDEPEND="oss? ( >=media-plugins/gst-plugins-oss-0.10 )
alsa? ( >=media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.10 )
esd? ( >=media-plugins/gst-plugins-esd-0.10 )
X? ( >=media-plugins/gst-plugins-x-0.10 )
xv? ( >=media-plugins/gst-plugins-xvideo-0.10 )
dvb? ( media-plugins/gst-plugins-dvb
>=media-libs/gst-plugins-bad-0.10.6
>=media-plugins/gst-plugins-fluendo-mpegdemux-0.10.15 )
mythtv? ( media-plugins/gst-plugins-mythtv )"

I filed a bug report at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214831.
