I'll see to its support in decoder.

Hmm, I think Lavc should be able to decode its own output and JPEG-in-TIFF
is not unlike DV-in-(AVI|MOV).
IIRC, there are two variants: JPEG components stored in TIFF tags separately
and whole JPEG-in-JFIF-in-TIFF variant. First seems to be logical at least.
Which one is used?
