Uhm, I wouldn't want to do it:

1) The rename would break all the 3rd party BSP/application recipes.

2) GStreamer 0.10 is explicitly obsolete and unsupported, and as of 
today, provided only to ease the transition to 1.0. The 0.10 recipes 
won't be updated anymore, unless someone in the community wants to do it.
