Okay, so Doxia now requires figure references to specify an extension. Is there a particular reason why this change was necessary?

I really like the old way because it allowed me to have two versions of the same figure, one PNG and one PDF, that would be selected automatically depending on the output format. Now I have to force everything to be PNG.

I'm running into bug DOXIA-99:
 http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-99
If I don't specify an extension, then the HTML is generated without one, causing the image to fail to load. If I do specify an extension, then the HTML has the extension, and the image loads properly. However, this prevents the image format auto- selection feature from working described in the APT format documentation. The issue was resolved as "Won't Fix" but I don't understand why. I'm guessing that the APT format documentation is now incorrect. Specifically, this line is wrong: "An APT processor will first try to load /home/joe/docs/mylogo.eps . When the desired format is not found, a APT processor tries to convert one of the existing formats."
Should I file an issue to have the documentation corrected?
