I'm curious what your goals are here so that we can understand if we are
aware of your needs for future API development.

The usual reason for specifying a storage format is that you need to
access the pixels directly and so you need to know how they will be
stored in the image buffers.  But with a VolatileImage, the pixels are
not accessible so the storage format is not directly relevant to using it.

Are you looking to choose a smaller format to save memory?

Are you looking to make sure that the image has RGB (or A) channels or
is grayscale?

Some other need?

type ? And when I say type I reffer to those types from the BufferedImage 
class: TYPE_INT_ARGB, TYPE_BYTE_GRAY, etc.
