Comment:
"the cues are being displayed over the video as appropriate" - this says
"cues", so multiple cues are supported at once. But many SRT players don't
actually support more than one SRT subtitle at once - they either play the
first one in the file or draw them over each other. SSA/AS6 is the only format
that cares about multiple lines ("collision handling"). Needs a testcase at
least.
