IMHO this should go into to the config layer as there will be more than
just the demuxers who should be able to provide dynamical config data
after init. And if i understood the current design of the cfg layer, it's
thought only for a fixed number of variables which are known at compile time.

But i see also a design problem here. IIRC most of the parameters which would
be interesting for such a system are not know after preinit, but when the first
packet is decoded and the first frame passed trough the vp chain. Am i right ?
