I'm going through particulars now. Ok, so av_seek_frame_binary() etc.
is beautiful. But it lacks one small thing: updating the demuxer
afterwards. Is it ok if my rm_seek() function is implemented as this:

int rm_seek() {
  // FIXME maybe some special handling for old_format/multirate
  if (av_seek_frame_binary()<0) return -1;
  rm->audio_pkt_cnt = 0;
  rm->remaining_len = 0;
  return 0;
}

? That seems like it would do the whole thing...
