[matplotlib-devel] .bmp file saving

[Michael Droettboom]

The Agg backend has a feature where if "bmp" was specified as a file 
extension, it saves as a raw RGBA image.  IMHO, this is perhaps too 
easily confused with the "Microsoft Windows Bitmap" format.  There is a 
(someone else's) bug filed against this:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1696469&group_id=80706&atid=560720

As part of my recent refactoring of code to map image filetypes to 
backends, I removed this meaning of .bmp.  If anyone has any reasons why 
.bmp should stay as a "raw" format, let me know, and I'll put it back 
in.  Either way, I'll close the bug as either "fixed" or "rejected".

Cheers,
Mike
