I was testing these winegstreamer patches today, in context of media 
session, and noticed that right after Start() call and before I had a 
chance to make any
sample requests, I get trace above showing hundreds of pending samples 
already. Does it mean source buffers whole media unconditionally, or is 
there a limit to it?

Even if requests will normally come soon after start, it will at least 
take time to deliver source/stream state events, which takes arbitrary time,
or may never happen. If it's really a case of excessive buffering we'll 
have to limit it somehow.
