Doing a format conversion and spitting it back out on an emulated device
node is ugly and I don't think anything like that exists.  

A good solution would be a v4l user space library that sits between the
/dev/video* devices and user space applications.  The library could do
things like format conversion, auto-focus, and etc.  Something like
PulseAudio for video.  Now, someone just needs to write it.

Any takers?  8-)
