ok

but someone (=you) must go over all fields of AVCodecContext and make sure
they are duplicated appropriately (no pending leaks, double frees or
changing arrays under ones fingers)

and it must be clear how to free these contexts and what they can be used for
for example we cant copy priv_data currently (must be set to NULL in the
copy) as such copying would be codec specific. It could be done with
a AVCodec.clone() but thats probably too much work for now. Even though
it would be usefull in some cases to be able to clone a codec and actually
be able to use both independantly afterwards.
