I would agree with this - I'm unaware anywhere in the ISDCF of such a limit. In fact,
there's a test that places the subtitles in the upper right corner (if that channel is
operational), so I would imagine that such a limitation is not necessary.
Additionally, if the subtitles are part of the feature (literally a part of the image),
having the ability to place the ones we might want elsewhere might be very beneficial.
Not that I want to do that myself, and do not want to give all accolades to Carl for the
work he's doing.
Still, I like your thinking Carsten.
On another note, any of you at CinemaCon this year?

Subject:[DCP-o-matic] Subtitles vertical offset limit?
Looks as if there is a hard limit of +/- 28% in vertical and horizontal subtitle offset.
Is there a hard reason for this (timed text)?
I guess it could be useful to have 'toptitles' instead of subtitles occasionally?
