free-form structures make sense imho but there should be some API for the
common cases

Maybe parameters for the normal case of just having a single redirect URL, and
other new functions for other common cases?

Common fields and their types should at least be documented, even better some
API to set/get common fields (e.g. bitrate).

Maybe these should contain the word "redirect"
