+ *
+ * The pipeline handler is responsible to find all media devices it requires
+ * to operate and once it retrieves them create all the camera devices
+ * it is able to support with the that set of devices.
+ *
+ * To make it a bit less bit complicated to write pipe line handlers a
+ * important macro REGISTER_PIPELINE() is provided which allows a pipeline
+ * hander implementation to register itself with the library with ease.
+ *
+ * \todo Figure out how and if the PipelineHandler should be involved in
+ *       controlling cameras with resource dependencies and if the handler
+ *       should provide helpers for cameras to control media graph links.
