--- Comment #5 from Sebastian Dröge (slomo) <slomo at coaxion.net> ---
See my comment in the other bug. Just this boolean is pretty useless as you
usually want a more high-level setting:

>From an application point of view you want more than this boolean usually. You
usually want to be able to override the aspect ratio, not have it completely
loose. The common case is that you have a video that is recorded 4:3 but is
actually 16:9 and then want to have this actual aspect ratio enforced by the
player. Or even worse, you have that case but also have to crop/zoom in.
Take a look at how totem or VLC are handling this for example.
