It's not a top priority for me, but certainly something we'd like to have.

But until we provide a simpler Processing-style interface, you can always use the Android APIs to access the camera.

There are ongoing efforts to compile gstreamer on android:

This could result (some day) in gsvideo-android :-)

Andres, just happened across that project -- GStreamer on Android, of course, would be awesome; now have to follow that. :)

One possible advantage of using gstreamer could be more codecs supported for playback. But it is too early to say for sure, I don't know which gstreamer plugins compile and work fine on Android right now. There is also the problem of the java bindings, JNA is not currently available on Android.
