I'm very well aware of the above, but I'm forced to use some proprietary

gstreamer0.10 has not received security updates -- or security advisories --
since... 2012? I think you should maintain these packages in a copr or other
repo outside Fedora.
I don't see any bugs open against these components. I can't move them to
COPR as then RPM Fusion cannot consume them.
If the sole purpose of keeping the package in Fedora is to support a nonfree
RPMFusion package, maybe it would be safer to bundle the lib in that package,
outside of the default $LD_LIBRARY_PATH?
We don't like bundling, but frankly, if gstreamer1 would be statically linked in
that proprietary software, there would be no other choice anyway, right?
(I'm not saying you have to do this, I merely present an option that might work
for you while it would also satisfy the others.)
