42199 - Image decoders handling more than one mimetype

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics: ImageLib, defect, P3)

Description

[tor]

Currently image decoder components register a single mimetype,
which libimg uses to determine what streams to send its way (or
at least this is the way things are supposed to happen #41333).
The MNG component I've written handles both MNG (video/x-mng)
and JNG (image/x-jng) images (actually it can also handle
image/png, but that's another discussion).  We need some way
for a decoder to register multiple mimetypes.

M16 has been out for a while now, these bugs target milestones need to be 
updated.

Solved by registering two progids for the mng decoder.

Should this be documented somewhere?  Sounds like we need imglib extension
documentation ...

Well, I don't really know the first thing about imglib.  All I'm really saying
is that we should make sure this little piece of imglib folklore is not lost.
