GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 697769
Gstreamer documentation lacks useful cross-repo inheritance links.

GObjects in the plugin repositories know that they inherit from gstreamer or gstreamer/libs or -base, but the knowledge is one way. Thus, if you navigate up the object hierarchy from http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-base-plugins/html/gst-plugins-base-plugins-volume.html you come to pages like http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/GstElement.html#GstElement.object-hierarchy which doesn't even know about GstBaseTransform from gstreamer/libs, while the GstBaseTransform doesn't know of any subclasses. A list of pointers to example uses is exactly the kind of documentation something like GstBaseTransform needs. Related to #697768, in that I am cross with gtk-doc.
That's a limitation of gtk-doc, not much we can do.
