Another reason for this, unless I misunderstand, is when one wishes to choose
a particular VideoProvider implementation, for instance with particular
enhancement processing, from several candidates that can all render the same
source.

Or is there already a way to choose a particular implementation when
creating a VideoProvider?

I was wondering what people thought about adding a 
IDirectFB_CreateVideoProviderByName function:

this would have a prototype like:
IDirectFB_CreateVideoProviderByName(
    IDirectFB *thiz, 
    const char* filename, 
    const char* videoprovidername, 
    IDirectFBVideoProvider **interface)

The reason for this is that if you have a number of VideoProviders calling
Probe on each in turn can be time consuming and also requires data to be
going through the system.  
If you could shortcut this by specifying a name which could be the
VideoProviderName without lib or .so then this would allow a quick way of
saying - I know I am getting AVI data and I know which VideoProvider I need.
