... and an unoptimized decoder that can decode 2 frames per second is
not functional.

Please keep decoders 100% LGPL, including optimizations, it's one of
the features that makes ffmpeg so interesting. Dropping in a GPL
module will, like dropping in an external library, pretty much
annihilate any interest in ever making an integrated and pure LGPL
implementation.
