I don't say that this feature should be only for iOS.
I need this feature for my project which isn't iOS only. But iOS is the first
target.
I came up with this solution because i didn't knew it better.
I'm also fine if we would redefine what the result is when the option
saveToPhotoAlbum is active to mean that the original image is saved instead the
image which is returned to the caller.
