ok, i'm answering yoru question on irc:

<dalias> in g2, any object to requiring that all filters/vo be able to
    accept images with any stride?

YES.
it limits g2 vf layer to use fully controlled filter code only.
ie you cannot call 3rd party code which doesnt accept any kind of stride,
be it to-mpeg transcoder, codecs (remember, video encoders are connected
to vf layer anyway, but it can be workarounded by ugly hacks), external
filters and so on.

it should be handled, at least by auto-inserting expand filter.
