cdparanoia, sector offset and last track

Dear fellow users and Monty, o admired king of cdparanoia:

I've dug into the code a bit, and I *think* the way cdparanoia works is
it will not try to read past what it thinks is the last sector of the
last track. If you set a positive sector offset, this would mean it pads
the last track with zeroes. Am I correct?
