OK. Support for this can be added later. I recommend already checking what it would imply in terms of changes to the media graph. Changing the media graph later in a way that could break userspace won't be allowed, so it's worth it preparing for embedded data support in the media graph design already. Adding new pads to existing entities and adding new entities later are fine, but renumbering existing pads or inserting new entities between two existing entities could break userspace.
