Please do -- this is the sort of specialized area we can hopefully get a
smallish project moving. :)

Is OpenEXR standard/common enough at this point that we could mandate it as
"the" HDR format? If so we can probably go with that.

There are a couple levels of support we can offer:

1) very limited -- allow uploads but don't show them inline. (Useful to upload
"original version" files). Need to be able to verify file type, not much else.

2) JPEG thumbnail support -- convert to non-HDR JPEGs for inline display. Need
to be able to extract image width/height and use either ImageMagick or other
software to do basic conversion. Downside: no actual HDR view inline, you'll be
clipped.

3) Plugin view support -- allow using browser plugins (??) for native HDR view.
Not sure what's available or what that implies.

4) JavaScript-based partial HDR viewer with controls.... not sure how much
sense this makes, but could allow for viewing and live adjustment of the
dynamic range without browser plugins. :)

Thoughts anyway...
