I'm thinking we could have "fake" sinks and interfaces that behave like the Jolla/Android ones but use the closed Nokia binaries...?

This reminds me of libhybris... but in reverse...
No need to write a new source that calls itself droidcamsrc.

You already have subdevsrc2, patch it so it'd call itself droidcamsrc


Then we need to fix it so it'd expose and be able to deal with the caps which are being set by camera ui.

The next issue would be that droidcamsrc outputs jpegs for captured images while subdevsrc2 outputs yuv data.

As for rendering, yes I think we can proxy it.
