Complicated or not really the issue: if there are n demuxers and p codecs,
we do not want n×p special cases.

Therefore, the correct solution here would be to change the WebVTT demuxer
to output packets in the same format as Matroska rather than changing the
Matroska demuxer. The reason is that Matroska is generic while WebVTT is
specialized.

Exactly the same change that happened to ASS recently.

By the way, do you know any other container format that supports WebVTT?
