Yes, it's a tiny difference but why it has to be called "manually".

We have typed open in other places so it's a good idea. We would also 
integrate the capability string like:
- set_video_filter_callback
- set_blender_callback
- set_deinterlacer_callback
etc

Maybe someday we can have different types for each too.
