I guess diversity mode should be transparent to the user, so such a
device would register only one frontend (and thus only one demux) per
set of tuners used in diversity mode.

While your statements about non-TS based standards make sense, those
standards would require further work to be covered by a future API. In
this special case, however, we're discussing correct usage of the
current (TS based) demux API.
