If people insist on adding the mask/unmask crap to it, the function

Ah, and looking at the changes to the file, the addition of the mask
and unmask was done by someone who didn't understand what this was
trying to do. So that change should be backed out.

It looks like a mechanical "fix them all" thingy. I never intended to
use the simple handler for anything else than a fast demux handler.

You are right, it needs to be backed out.

Thanks,
