I personally would have no use for it, but instead of using -fst -flb -fsl
and -fsr together with -fs would it not be better to use the following
'-fs' as the default. Could be identical to '-fs center' (or -fs centre)
and then -fs left, -fs right -fs top and -fs bottom. Or even add topleft
topright bottomleft and bottomright (Or use North, East, South and West)

The advantage of e.g. bottomright is that you then have your preferences
regardless of the format of the movie and/or the screen. 

If adding this to -fs is not an option, -allign or similar might be.

Just food for thought.
