Not really problematic, it just usually causes more confusion than it solves
compared to just having this information at the top of the relevant files :)

Is the functionality exposed by the plugin and does it do something different
than in subparse? I.e. is it also supporting the same intermediate subtitle
format as used for TTML for all the other formats nowadays supported by
subparse?
