Once we get imgIDecoderObserver cleaned up and straightened out (involving a lot of refactoring), we could indeed implement a pluggable decoder story. But given that it's been years and we still haven't found anyone with the time to do the refactoring that Gecko itself needs (bug 505385), I'm very skeptical that it will ever happen. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
