Your original commit message for framestep mentioned no other filters,
then your next example was "fixes yadif=3,framestep=2 and
tfields=1:1,framestep=2 and others". This is the first time you mention
mcdeint in the chain. For this use I think the best special-case fix
would be an option to remove the flip event generation from the filters,
you could then form the filter chain in such a way that one output frame
reaches the vo for each input frame, and that can then be flipped
normally from the main loop.

An option for the 2 special filters would be better than adding a
general filter chain vo flip mechanism that is only useful for a special
case.

It doesn't break anything AFAIK. However it's not a solution for adding
frames in filters, and a special-case hack for a particular filter chain
would be better done in the problematic filters rather than adding a
"general" mechanism that is in fact not generally useful.
