you seem to propose that if the png tells us to then we should

No. The system should constrain the allocation. If you have enough
memory you should be allowed to open a _correct_ png file.
Of course we could (I wont) discuss how to change the implementation
to allow systems without enough ram to process files with large chunks,
but I doubt it would be a problem in real life.
