I remember seeing them in stuff like tutorials for how to load an
image in <foo> language and suchlike.  Perhaps I saw was some Scheme
stuff a couple of years ago where the examples used BMP...?  I can't
remember exactly.  It might have been PNG too, to be honest.

I still think it would be a nice little feature to have.  But I won't
protest if this is closed as wontfix either.

Best regards,
