Zhislina, Victoria (12021-05-25):
While you are right that IPP is not GPL based and is closed source
currently (but free for any commercial usage) and therefore does
require --enable-nonfree,
I'm sorry to mention that you are not right about "doing the same but
faster". If you read my commit message you could see that it:
Introduces superscaling interpolation method for video downscale.
Adds antialiasing option to linear, cubic and lanczos interpolation.

Moreover, IPP has 100-s of functions that could be added to ffmeg processing in 
the future.
One more thing to mention - when you say "one single platform" it is
x86 that undoubtedly covers top part of video processing market. Such
filter creation request comes from one of the top ISVs in this market.
So, are you working on getting this library GPL-compatible? Notify us
once it's done.

But there is no way we will accept code for a non-libre library coming
from the company that made the library in the first place. That would be
allowing freeloaders.

Put it to a vote instead of one or a few developers declaring it NAK.

Gyan
