So I think that the current behaviour is useful in some cases: when you 
use expression but you want to have fixed sized output even when the 
input frame size is changing.
(If anybody wonder why does somebody use expression instead of fix value 
in this case? Well, if you write a script to handle many different sized 
input file.)
For the new behaviour, I gave a usage scenario in my other post. And I 
know that the new behaviour is not important for most of the users.
Additionally, most user do not care either behaviour because dynamically 
sized video content is very rare.
This is the reason why I introduced the eval-mode option. So the user 
may decide which behaviour is good for him/her.
So my patch has no risk for any current user but some of them will be 
happy because of the new feature.
