Yes.

No, it wouldn't be more logical, it would just be different.  In
some cases (like drop-out), it's better to have it more gradually try to
match sync.

If that's be behaviour you want on your system, just use "-mc 10"
instead.  If you play enough videos with that option, sooner or later
you'll find examples where that causes problems rather than helping.

You know that fact, but mplayer doesn't have any way to.  If you were
using a different tool (like mencoder) to adjust a/v sync, it wouldn't
have that problem to begin with.
