sure it is an application-specific implementation for this time.
But HOW application can retrieve this flag if you doesn't provide the way
for that?!
Using original mkv demuxer library (thus parse video file twice - with
libavformat and with mkv demuxer)?

While this is a not common situation I don't see any problems to have
several video tracks
in MKV container some of them in stereo and some of them only in mono (for
example).

P.S.: FFmpeg is NOT only command-line tool.
