Comment:

 Since we use DTS timestamps and they should always be in order this patch
 doesn't provide much benefit. It may provide benefit for videos with
 significant amounts of reference frames where the AV-sync could be
 noticeably off but that doesn't seem to be causing anyone problems. Also
 since reordered_opaque timestamps are basically reordered PTS timestamps
 which are commonly missing it would cause heavy reliance on the timestamp
 fixups code which I consider risky.

 Closing as WONTFIX for the time being. It can always be revisited in the
 future if the need arises.
