I maybe mistaken but already there was patch for some "basic" pure ffmpeg H.264 encoder...

Yeah, this is that same encoder that was posted a few months ago...just with more enhancements. I think the earlier one was i-frame only, had no motion estimation, no rate control etc. It could be a while till this makes it into ffmpeg svn. Michael Niedermayer aka Mr ffmpeg himself said that it must either 1) be simpler than x264 2) or better quality at fixed speed 3) or just better quality. 2) and 3) would be hard to do. 1) is possible. But I think his dream is to one day have the x264 project in ffmpeg.
