I know, and I think it's important too. You'll notice that I didn't
suggest "non-I-frames", but "non-I frames"; it's still "something
frames", it's just that the something is now the compound term "non-I"
instead of just part of that term, "I".

That said, hwoever, this isn't really important enough for me to push at
it right now. If I ever decide to really make an issue out of
hyphenation, grouping, pauses and so forth, it will be incumbent on me
to provide a comprehensive patch which results in consistent usage
across the board rather than doing piecemeal "this bit uses one
standard, that bit uses another", which is what would result if I let it
depend on whether or not I'm feeling up to nitpicking that heavily on
any particular commit.
