No, definitely not. -q0 should be "lowest possible quality for that
certain kind of input", IMO. I never want any tool to decide things for
me, like resampling and similar. I don't even like lame and other MP3
encoders doing that ... it *should* do that only when presets are being
used. So I'm very happy how Vorbis used to do this, and I don't want
that to change. The ability to choose both, input and quality settings,
gives you another complete set of options on how to tweak a stream for
exactly your needs, for example.
