Comment (by stippi):

 Just wanted to note that I am fully on the same page with the changes. The
 API is clearly not intended to report writable formats only. It just so
 happened that all formats it reported on BeOS were also writable.
 Similarily, I don't think it makes sense to offer tons of writable
 formats, even though ffmeg might support it. The API should offer the most
 sensible and most likely needed choices only. Otherwise, users are just
 overwhelmed without guidance.
