But -depth 8 gives you PseudoColor, and I think always has.

I'll do some testing next > week to see how 8bpp true color on the client side looks. I was completely convinced we were using true colour for 8 bpp, so I had a look at the code. And apparently my memory is hazier than I think. The 3 bit and 6 bit modes are true colour, but 8 bit is not. So that will change in my cleanup as well then.
