Ok. Please, kill off vorbiscomment as soon as you can. It doesn't deserve
to live.

Are you intending to add functionality to libvorbis that is really needed
for what vorbiscomment (and thus, presumably, ogginfo) does? There were two
things I thought needed adding - one because the API doesn't currently give
a way to set things up properly (which vorbiscomment gets around by knowing
stuff about libvorbis internals that it shouldn't). The other is needed to
give more control over page flushing at the ogg layer, which would make it
much faster (rewriting the entire file one page at a time isn't really
needed).
