> This API is a nicer and much more powerful version of BPrint. It can be
> used to simplify existing code where BPrint could help, plus places
> where BPrint could not help.

> It also is the prerequisite for more ambitious projects, expecially
> universal serialization of FFmpeg objects (side data and such) into
> standardized formats.

> The implementation is in most part done, and I am sure I can deliver.
> What remains is the boring part of integrating the tests in FATE,
> polishing various parts, updating the parts where I changed my mind
> midway, etc.

> Note: FF_NEW_SZ is a macro defined elsewhere; it is really part of the
> implementation more than the API.
