That would be good news.

Only grabbing? I had the idea that output devices would have their place in
the same library as well.

I am all in favor of 2.

What do you intend to do concerning the registering of pseudo-formats? Keep
a single list or a separate list? If this is a single list, register with
av_register_all?
