This struct has existed in essentially this exact form for decades
(before FFmpeg) and is derived from fundamentals of the human visual
system. I could not begin to dream of a reason it would need to be
suddenly extended - even if we add support for, say, CMYK color spaces
and libavprinter, it would be a new struct.
