Err no - they don't. The playlist/SD bindings takes care of that.

The GUI listen to the playlist events, and that's why you need the media tree 
if you want to get rid of the playlist. And indeed, you also need a place to 
store the list of active SDs (presumably, the media tree does that too).

But that does not explain the need for anything other than media tree still.

And even if there is, or will be, a case for replacing input items or input 
nodes, that's going way too far for a single patch series.

The only change that is absolutely required here is to remove the damned 
callbacks from input items, since the callbacks will now be on media tree.
