-vo gl:yuv=1 works with anything from GeForce 3 up, too. With YUY2 it would
probably even be possible to support the TNT2 (in the worst case halving
the horizontal resolution though).

Can't you just submit what you have and deal with the subtitles later?
The larger the patch you submit is the longer it will take to get it
committed, and ASS subtitles support is likely to be a mess if you want good
performance.
Not to mention how _very_ much more painful it would be if the review
found any design flaws (probably unlikely but still).
