are sketchy)

From a quick read of the source code-
libavfilter/vf_drawtext.c uses libavutil/file.c av_file_map(); that opens
the file in with O_RDONLY (read only).
If mmap exists (in the build of ffmpeg) that is used to map the file with
PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, which IIRC means that the memory map of the file may
be back written to.
Either way, changing the size of the underlying file would interfere with
the memory map of it, and changing the size of a file can upset programs
that aren't expecting it.
In the end, drawtext in the ffmpeg executable doesn't appear to be the right
tool for the job.
