I have tried this before, but by removing the editlist using this flag, the 
resulting file had major frame rate issues - for example a 24fps file, would 
come out at 23.99fps and would not play correctly - using my test file with 
burnt in timecode and a timecode track, it was easy to see that they were not 
keeping sync. This also results in a file which is longer than the true 
duration and Quicktime decoders can display a black frame at the end as a 
result.

Perhaps this is because the edit list is removed from all tracks, not just the 
audio, I don’t know, but it doesn’t currently achieve what I described above 
sadly.
