From the usability point of view, that's horrible. I am happy when users
understand what JPEG and PNG is at all. Coming from Facebook, they call
everything a "Pic" and when you reject progressive JPEGs with a message like:
"Progressive JPEGs must not be uploaded here, instead use baseline because it's
better for our servers", I am sure we will succeed in confusing 90% of the new
uploaders receiving this message.

BTW, do we still use ImageMagic for JPEGs or VIPS?
