I would have added it when i wrote eq, but I thought it would be
annoying since if you accidentally hit they key and moved saturation
to a nonzero value, playback would suddenly become a lot slower. IMHO
the osd should show numbers instead of (or at least in addition to)
the stupid bars.

Someday I'd like to see a really advanced tool based on mplayer, with
not just scripted insertion and removal of filters, but also support
for running multiple decoders concurrently and a whole tree of
filters, some of which could take multiple inputs and other which
could give multiple outputs. So basically it'd be a whole
script-driven amature (or professional :) digital filmmaking system.

Of course I don't see that happening anytime soon.
