Hi

How are attachments (cd cover image, fonts for subtitles, ...) supposed to be
stored in nut?
As i originally designed things, info packets should have been used. But
after changes upon which some fanatically insisted info packets no longer
are flexible enough. They are required to be repeated after every header and
they can only apply to a single stream. Neither of these limitations was in
the original design.

So for 10 subtitle streams, we would need a minimum of 30 copies of all fonts.

My original design could have stored a version of the font and still kept
proper references so that it was known to the demuxer which streams the
attachment applied to.
