Question, If there is a GSOC task for improving media player, would it
not make sense to make media player the equivalent of the media player
that is available on competing platforms. The idea would be to add the
missing functionality that would remove the need for external software
like VLC, thus making native software more capable and reducing the need
for external ports.Also this harks back to the more "media os" nature
of the "beos" even if it may have been marketing hyperbole to some degree.

I think the idea to " add the missing functionality that would remove the need
for external software"
should apply to the entire OS as much as possible. This also speeds up native
app development, because the os does most of the work..
