If there is such a list, I'd like to add lut3d: I was looking for a way to
do the current simple query_formats with the addition of a XYZ input which
would be mapped to one or two rgb64 output if selected.

I think overlay was the first to have a special logic in that spirit? I
don't remember any other so far, but git grep EAGAIN libavfilter might
give hints.
