It's the status quo. And I don't believe that the implementation of
what you guys propose will be any less complex than what we currently
have.

The proposal doesn't allow me to drop libav-extra in Ubuntu. This
means, that 'libav' in Ubuntu/main must not provide
libavcodec-extra-53. And now things start to become way to complex for
me to think further about it. Sorry, but no thanks.
