Hi Luya, I'm afraid, that's not a feasible solution for blender.
To support robust frame exact seeking, we have to do some creative stuff with the ffmpeg API, which is to my knowledge not possible with gstreamer, I'm afraid. Suggestion: why don't you build a stripped down version of ffmpeg for Fedora with all patented codecs removed and use that instead? A lot of projects depend on ffmpeg (and libavcodec), so: removing it all together seems a bit extreme to me...
