That works for third-party from one third-party. This feature helps users who want to use filters from multiple third-party. With what you describe, they would have to merge the branches, which might not be trivial. On the other hand, the JSON in this makes it look like it was designed by looking at how fashionable languages NIHed their own f5g package system. If instead it was designed by asking “what would a ffmpeg developer do”, it would just have configure run ext/*/configure and then Makefile include $(CONFIG_EXT_WHATEVER).
