Yes, there has to be "extra time" besides the time for realizing a seek
request. You do want to let the media play for a little while before seeking
again, no matter how fast a single seek request is processed. That's what my
changes at Qt level introduced.

Of course it's of bigger benefit to implement in the core, I agree.
