 Of course, this requires a bit of overhead, since both the source and
 sink need to have an additional buffer referenced at all times,
 thereby increasing average memory usage.  But any method will require
 additional memory usage.

+I don't think that increasing performance for corner cases is an
+interesting use of developer time right now.  A typical DVD mpeg
+stream that has been converted from film has ~30% repeated frames, though.
+
+Now that we have a duration field, can that be used to the same effect?
+
+I'm concerned that "sparse" video streams will just end up being a lot
+of work to support for plugins that are really pretty simple, like
+timeoverlay.
+
+I'd like to tag this bug "thoughts for 1.2" (or 0.10), and close it.
