We may handle BMP correctly but that belongs to unknown format. But to prevent unknown issue or OOM, we have a limitation on the unknown format: 32 bytes < only images' size < 500KBs[1].

For BMP file, the memory usage is predictable and the format is simple. We should have a BMP parser to parse it. But as to this bug, it is a feature request instead of a bug.

Adding Sri for product input on this feature request. 

At this point for 1.3 release we are only looking at regression issues and show stopper bugs
