this is just general thinking not about an actual implementation, for
cin3 we plan a backend which can cope with this. But we need to draw a
line of things which are of general interest (algorithms and
implementations) and things which are better left for the implementor of
a video editing program, aka not produce yet-another-framework or plugin
api. Sometimes the backend can cheat around plugin api deficiencies in
other ways there is no way then this api cant be used, maybe improve it
or switch to another one, time will show.
