Well, the common (newbie) user probably won't know anything about dshow (neither
do i ;) ), nor will he know what quartz stands for. The only thing he will see
in his console is something like:

fixme:quartz: blablabla

So for example if he was about to search for duplicates before filing a bug,
it's really better to have a per dll component.

totally agree with James. I'll await the changes.....
