No, there's not, but that's a good idea. What about something like:

----

No plugins were found to play back this media type:

You may need to enable or set up a 3rd party software source to find
these plugins.

You can buy media plugins from "Fluendo Codec Store" but these will not
be supported by your vendor.

----

The Fluendo Codec Store link could be just disabled in gconf, or patched
out by free software distros.

I do feel something like this is unavoidable, lest we face the wrath of users and reviewers complaining about us being uncaring about their need to use non-Free codecs. Perhaps something a bit more wordy though, explaining *why* these codecs aren't included in Fedora (a la Codeina).
