You force pushed the revert with standing objections 12 minutes

And without warning that you would push something

<michaelni> We can discuss, that was my suggestion, theres no plugin from a non ffmpeg developer, not one so also not one with dlopen and none hiding dlopen and none breaking contract
<Lynne> okay, so option 1?
[13:48] <Lynne> its a binary choice.
