I think this is too specific for decoders. Something similar to the
CH_RESOLUTION description would be more appropriate:

      - This event gets triggered when a color bit-depth change (but not a
	resolution change!) is detected	at an input. This can come from an
	input connector or from a video decoder. Applications will have to query
	the new pixel format and re-negotiate the queue.

	For stateful decoders follow the guidelines in :ref:`decoder`.
	Video capture devices will in most cases have to stop and restart
	streaming (:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <VIDIOC_STREAMON>` followed by
	:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <VIDIOC_STREAMON>`).

And update dev-decoder.rst where needed with this new event flag.

As to your question on irc: once I've acked this patch it can be merged
via a venus PR.
