Our software will detect mirror operations and correct for them.

I've been thinking the exact opposite -- mirroring should be a valid method
for turning subfiles inside-out, and the software doesn't need to do
anything special to deal with it (except to notice the inversion, and pass
that info on to the subfile).  That's the reason the 0 INVERT flag would be
needed -- to tell the rendering program that it needs to correct the
inversion for the following command.
