Well, that gets us partway there. Looking at the docs, it looks like the output image must still be less than 1MB -- certainly fine for thumbnailing, but possibly for not all types of tasks.
Also: right now (unless I've missed an API somewhere) to validate images you must pass them to the Image API with a "no-op" transform and see if execute_transforms() succeeds. So if I want to validate a >1MB image, I still have the issue with the output side of the image API. It would be great if we could execute_transforms() directly back to a blob and get a BlobInfo back?
