Another useflag-related question.
Currently, the encode useflag is defined as follow:
encode - Adds support for MEncoder or LaME encoder, wherever applicable
this is a loose definition which is quite useless for medium user, as it's
used also in a non-complete-standard way in all ebuilds.
My proposal is to start using lame useflag to enable lame support (in software
which is just encoding on itself), and using encode with a slight different
definition for example:
encode - Adds support for encoding files in addiction to decoding
so that it can be used to enable generic encoding support instead of specific
using lame or mencoder.
