Hi guys,

Please excuse my chiming in - I hadn't followed this discussion in detail,
but I couldn't find an answer in the last few messages for this:

Would this proposal also affect the output of ffmpeg -h ?
e.g.: `ffmpeg -h componenttype=componentname`

I'm asking because I have a project where I'm creating a strongly typed
C# object model for a specific ffmpeg version based on ffmpeg help
output. It would be pretty unfortunate when that would break..
(in case you wonder: it's an object model for building complex and valid 
ffmpeg command lines)

Kind regards,
