There are two reasons why I didn't do this:
1. A user with only a background in (say) H.264 or H.265 might want to
put a value of 0 in there, thinking it is a legel value. Said user is
going to be surprised.
2. I have not given up hope on updating the AVCodecParameters (do you
remember
https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2018-December/236990.html ?)
and if 0 means do nothing, then it is not in line with the rest of cbs
and needs special handling there.
But both reasons are very weak and so I will consider your suggestion.
