Great. I'll take a look at it asap.

Yes. dvd::rip would need to know in advance which subtitle images have 
the flag. dvd::rip uses subtitle2pgm for extracting the images from the
subtitle streams. I think we need to patch it to get the "forced" flag 
reported during this process. Then dvd::rip could filter the images and
could make good suggestions which subtitle stream is the correct for the
selected language.

Do you volunteer for the subtitle2pgm patch? ;)
