libaom does encoding and decoding. And most people only use
it for encoding, as its not a very fast decoder. As-is, this patch
only does decoding.

Then why merge this if its not usable and won't stick once a usable
decoder is written?

We don't do experimental decoders in general.

I don't believe Matron said anything like this.
Also did you steal this line from the Bible or something :)
