          Priority: Normal

Matroska's ordered chapters allow many useful tricks, like:
* Having editions with intro/outro and without them in the same file
* Having intro/outro in separate files that are linked on the fly to the series
body
* Small files with chapters only that allow playing the entire series as one
movie
* and many others

See here for a short explanation of what ordered chapters are:
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=99489

Since ordered chapters are used more and more (especially on series, where the
intro/outro are moved to separate files and then linked to the episodes in
order to save space) it is absolutely required that gstreamer's matroskademux
supports them.
