[vorbis] Where's the tool to do .ogg bitrate "peeling"?

You're not crazy, that was Monty, i.e. as authoritative as it gets, on this 
matter. :^)

And if *I* remember well, that was not a case of "improv[ing] on the 
resulting peeled file quality", but of allowing the file to be peeled at 
all, at least in a first phase. So our lovingly crafted RC3 files may be out 
  of peeling luck. :^(
