There's nothing bad about that IMO, although it will become redundant
with Ogg eventually, when bitrate peeling makes its way from the
paper/code experiments to mainline CVS. Peeling will result in better
quality than reencoding can ever achieve - at least theoretically.

Btw, can't ices2 reencode already, too?
