Sharing non standard information between elements

[Baby Octopus]

Hi,

Lets assume this is my pipeline

Src --> Element A --> Element B --> Element C --> Sink

Suppose if I want some information between element A and C, say if A is videorate and C is video encode, for some reason, the video encoder is interested in knowing actual frame rate. How can this information be passed? It has to pass through element B. How can this be done?
