For all I can tell that is what ID_SUBTITLE_ID is good for. Considering
that -identify is also for frontends there is not much point in making
it display the SPU ID, what would a frontend want with that.

It might affect the correct working of frontends.
Nevertheless in this case I agree it is a different issue not directly
related to this, so I don't have any further objections to the patch.
Would be nice to see those ID_SUBTITLE_ID messages "fixed" (according to
what I consider correct) anyway though.
