I'll add the launchable icon to the to-do list, not with a high priority,
though. One thing that I need still need to do for this is add dedicated
transparency support to my TBMP classes. Currently I can get away with
drawing the original image (with transparency) on a white background and
place that in the Plucker document.

Anyway, I've decided to freeze the feature set and release a 0.9 beta very
soon(probably today or tomorrow). I get too many messages from people using
0.8.6.2 and 0.9 is so much better. One user got his IP banned by Slashdot
because JPluck (0.8.6.2) was making too many simultaneous requests. To
counter this, I introduced a 750ms delay when creating multiple connections
and lowered the maximum number of connections to 4. Also, 0.8.6 has no cache
so resources are always retrieved in their entirety. The HTTP cache in 0.9
greatly reduces network traffic as the spider can make conditional GET
requests using the if-modified-since header.
