But Arista shouldn't be requiring faac by element name in he first place! It
should be looking for an encoder for audio/mpeg with mpegversion=4.

There is at least one encoder which can be used instead of the FAAC one:
gstreamer-ffmpeg contains an AAC encoder which is LGPLed, whereas FAAC is
non-Free. (Both are patent-encumbered the same way and not covered by a patent
license, so patent issues are not a reason to use FAAC over FFmpeg either.)
