Ok, for example:

config BR2_PACKAGE_GST_PLUGINS_GOOD_PLUGIN_FLAC
        bool "flac (libFLAC)"
        select BR2_PACKAGE_FLAC

The names of the plugins are "flacenc" and "flacdec", and are not mentioned in
the config. In parentheses we have "libFLAC" which appears to be telling us
what the dependency is. No other plugins are described, e.g. matroska is a
container format but this is not explained in the config.

The name of the config variable seems to me to correspond to the name of the
plugin/configure option in gstreamer rather than the name of the element. I
could change the patch, it's not a problem, but I do think it would look a
little weird the way things are laid out at the moment.
