I have suggested root&nikolay to "copy" instead of "move" if that is
possible

If that is doable&practical on the technical side then we would keep
the "safe state" and still have the new and more powerfull system.

about rushing, i dont want to rush, i want to avoid holding up
people who want to work on it. It likely will take a while
anyway before it is finished

Also if someone wants to help with the "copy" or with seperating
the services more for improved security and stuff
please contact root at ffmpeg.org
