Yes, naturally. It could now be nothing vs --y4m. Also I wasn't even
thinking about libavformat/-codec based input modules, but just the
fact that we would have an easy way to plug different input modules
into the system so that they can be overridden via the command line.
Of course one could just add an option per every input module. Just
thought about noting the x264 style, as x265 in some ways tries to be
a "successor" for it.

But yes, getting actually working stdin input is great in general,
even better if with Y4M support since that way one does not have to
input basic parameters of the clip via the command line.
