No.

Yes.
The CODA decoder needs the encoded OUTPUT frames to be copied into a
single bitstream ringbuffer. The OUTPUT buffers can be copied and
dequeued immediately, as long as there is enough space in the bitstream
buffer. Depending on the bitstream type, a few buffers need to be in the
bitstream for the CODA to be able to run. To be able to drain the
bitstream buffer and extract the last few frames, a stream-end bit needs
to be set, after which no new frames can be added to the bitstream
ringbuffer.
To get the last few frames of a stream decoded, I wanted to use
STREAMOFF on the OUTPUT queue (which sets stream-end mode in hardware)
and then continue to call DQBUF on the CAPTURE queue to have the driver
decode the remaining frames. When DQBUF is called on the last frame, the
driver sends the EOS event.
Kamil doesn't want STREAMOFF on the OUTPUT side to be used to put a
decoder into stream-end mode, I'll address that in the other mail.

That's only because I had no need of (and no way to test) buffered
capture queues. It should probably be made symmetric.
