We agree, except on the last point. All user-visible FFmpeg types should have a way for the user to input them, self-contained and convenient with regard with the logic of the type, and a function to print them in a way that can be parsed back. Channels layouts do not have multiple options, they have av_channel_layout_from_string(). Rationals are not entered with -framerate_num 24000 -framerate_den 1001, they are entered as a ratio, and so on. It should be systematic.
