It is WONTFIX, with a slight declination towards INVALID, since the
proposal was to implement an anti-feature (e.g. you don't want to parse
unparsable output when parsing the regular - parser friendly - output
which goes to stdout), and yes it would break all the scripts which parse
the current output.
Note that the title of the ticket is misleading, since ffprobe output
currently *goes* to stdout, but for the configuration/version blurb which
goes to stderr (and is not meant to be parsable).
