I won't call it core but that's one improvement.

This is Debian not ubuntu. libass1 and libass-dev are currently in NEW
awaiting ftp-master approval. So until it makes it way to sid the vlc
package will be without the libas module.

They will be rendered the same way they are in 0.8.6  i.e. without nice
formating
