Actually, I think they're far more pervasive than that. With the GIF patent, there was only one and a better format that avoided the patent was possible anyway. >> Please, get your hands dirty and start work if you're convinced >> people will want this.

Maybe later. Indeed, I understand that, but I don't think any of the current core have the right time+willing available to do this for you now, so pleading will have little effect.
