I apperciate the efforts to reply more than half a line.

There is no doubt it IS a kind of resampling: it is in the name. The
question is whether is it specific enough to warrant a separate
interface.

There are various way of doing a resampling with various properties.
This is just another one.

Making it a separate filter is the easy solution, but not the good one.
It is reporting all the choices to later or the end user. That makes for
easy quick code now, but terrible use later.

Options. We already have them, just add a few. And in that case, it
becomes accessible for all filters.
