To give an example for consistency:

d3d11va decoding will only ever decode into array-textures. So when I
use d3d11va decoding, and then try to encode with qsvenc, it still
fails on such systems, right?
And not only that, it'll fail in mysterious ways.

When I'm decoding with qsvdec and it produces a list of textures, and
the API user does not handle them, since its a new feature and a API
change, it'll break mysteriously again.

Adding a confusing alternate way to store textures in the context
seems less then ideal, even more so since its not necessary for
up-to-date drivers. Let Intel document the exact driver requirements,
and check it, fallback to d3d9 otherwise? Seems like an overall much
neater solution.
Bending our API to the needs of legacy drivers seems like something
that will cause headaches for years to come, while said hardware will
slowly just go away.
