another suggestion: band-pass filter.

As use case: I'd like to be able to take a high definition video (like 
1920x1080, for instance) and band-pass limit the resolution in both 
horizontal and vertical directions. In this particular use case, I would 
want to be able to make the band-passed output equivalent to that of a 
file with a resolution of 702x386 pixels.

This particular use case for a band-pass filter would be to eliminate 
any aliasing that would be caused by scaling a progressive 1920x1080 
video to an interlaced 720x576 video (scale to 702x576, pad to 720x576, 
then interlace).

I don't think (happy to be corrected) FFmpeg currently includes any 
band-pass filtering filters.
