I think it would make more sense to write a generalized backend-driven
system so distributions that don't wish to ship gdk-pixbuf, or libpng
for that matter, can simply write a backend suitable for their needs.
For the time being, Wayland compositor and clients that we have at
freedesktop.org are meant for demo only, and no distribution should pack
them. We should keep them as simple as possible and lean enough to
evaluate the protocol.
Therefore, the idea of the patch is to make the implementation simpler
and not to increase the complexity, introducing things like a backend
for image conversion.
Thanks for the comments, Joakim.
