Subtitles with AudioDescribed

[Kapitano]

I'm trying to download audiodescribed versions, plus the subtitle files.

This is the command line entry to create the PVR setting:

get_iplayer --pvr-add="demo1" --search="merlin" --version=audiodescribed 
--subtitles --get

When I run the PVR, the subtitles setting is ignored. I get the video, 
but no SRT file. Presumably the BBC only associates the subtitles with 
the default version?

A workaround would to have *two* download sessions, one for the 
audiodescribed video files and one for the SRT files of the default 
video version. But when I try to create a PVR setting file there's no 
entry in the PVR file.

This GiP command...

get_iplayer --pvr-add="demo2" --search="merlin" --subtitles-only --get

...produces this PVR file:

search0 merlin

A workaround of the workaround is to have a DOS BAT file for the 
subtitles like this:

--get_iplayer --search="merlin" --subtitles-only --get

... and it works, but it seems a rather clunky method. Plus it also gets 
the subtitles for any searched-for programmes which exist as 
non-audiodescribed as well as described ones.

So,

1) Can GiP be made to interpret instructions so that when it finds a 
--subtitles tag *and* a --version=audiodescribed tag, it gets the 
subtitles from any *other* version which has them?

2) Can the --subtitles-only tag be made available as a PVR setting?
