are you refering the decoder or encoder, or both.

slice resync: xvid decoder support it already. encoding support is not
difficult, but you have to keep track of the slice-boundary (because
ac/dc, mv predicition can't occur over the boundary).

data partitioning: i have been meaning to implement data partitioning in
the decoder, but it is low priority.

reversible vlc: iam unaware of any encoder/decoder that support this (other
than the reference software).

short header: easy to implement. (but i dont think the encoder should
use this format..)
