I've no idea. Perhaps you would need to get both datasheets and compare
them.

The hardest part seems to graduate the sharpness levels, as sharpness
actually is split into 3 different controls.

Of course, one interested on doing that would need to have a device
with the needed chipsets and time/interest on doing that.

Adding control framework at stk1160 also requires some time. I can't
volunteer myself of doing that. I don't have any stk1160-based
devices.

Yeah, the saa7115 datasheet (freely available at NXP site) mentions that 
sharpness control may be needed for some kinds of output.
