I guess it depends on who is doing the adding :-)

There are already rippers for (S)VCDs, write a shell script and be
happy. In fact, mplayer itself can do that (see -dumpstream option).

And how often would one want to extract the MPEG datastream? I can only
think of reencoding for playback on Palm Pilot or Zaurus, but such
requests are best corrected with appropriate medication :-) Any other
conversion (such as into Divx) would result in significant loss of
quality.
