The idea with frei0r is that you have to combine multiple frei0r
filters/mixers including adjusting the alpha channel. But I do realize
this can be quite awkward, and this filter is more concise and quite
likely better performing than combining 3 frei0r plugins.

I have not compared them side-by-side, but it would not surprise me,
so fair enough.
