While you are right that IPP is not GPL based and is closed source currently (but free for any commercial usage) and therefore does require --enable-nonfree, I'm sorry to mention that you are not right about "doing the same but faster". If you read my commit message you could see that it: Introduces superscaling interpolation method for video downscale. Adds antialiasing option to linear, cubic and lanczos interpolation.
Moreover, IPP has 100-s of functions that could be added to ffmeg processing in the future. One more thing to mention - when you say "one single platform" it is x86 that undoubtedly covers top part of video processing market. Such filter creation request comes from one of the top ISVs in this market.
