Not really. I don't have an opinion on this. 1024 is the natural
delay of the codec, so maybe it would be best to leave it at that.

I don't remember something like that. The faac workaround dates back
from 2012 (bfe735b5824c7d10ba42932a17d786db50e3b2d4), and it's only for faac.
It's less of a guess, as most encoders to use the FIL extension to signal
themselves.
