In order to keep things sane, please DO NOT.
The swscale experience is fresh again for me and I'd rather not.

Mind keeping that in a branch so people interested may get it and people 
scared can live w/out? I'm not sure if that code is less scary than 
swscale BUT your following comment says much.

Are you joking? If you are _really_ serious I'd suggest (or even I'd do 
myself) to clean it up at least to be properly indented in mplayer.

So in short, to cut all the bikeshed and in the as calm as possible tone:

since directly importing code from mplayer collides with:
- coding style
- basic respect for structured code
- people that might be interested in contribute optimizations

I'd rather have it polished before, either in mplayer or here, if you 
are itching to commit it, make a branch and advertise it so before it 
hits the master those 3 points might be addressed already.
