ImageMagick seems nice. The only bad experience I've had with it is
that it can't seem to encode JPEGs well. The quality is extremely poor
when taking a screenshot with import -root. Is this a known issue/is
there a workaround/would this affect AbiWord?

The idea of a miniMagick is nice. I hope it is kept API-compatable
with ImageMagick and the configure script detects installed
imagemagick library to use instead of the internal minimagick.
