this sounds wrong to me. The sample rate converter is not an "encoder",
and the properties for padding/delay are totally specific to an encoder
function.

The other point is that I am not sure how standard this ratio_mod
parameter is. This could be totally specific to a specific
implementation, and another ASRC might have different parameters.

I am not sure this is wise to change such definitions?

Again I am not sure how standard those parameters are, and even if they
were if their representation is reusable.

And the compressed API has a good split between encoders and decoders, I
am not sure how an SRC can be classified as either.
