Please think a little further: multiple instances of the single-stream
filters would not have access to all the channels.

This was a discussion for when the device was implemented. Now, it works
that way, the new API has to accommodate it.

Anyway, these are just two example. I am sure we could find other
examples easily if we tried. It would be pretty stupid of us to add a
new API that is barely better than the current one and that we know is
too limited for likely use cases.
