yes, it looks like QImageIO is nice for the beginning, but a little bit 
expensive. So having a QImageIO plugin is a good start, but over time, we 
could migrate to better plugins, which don't decode the entire image.

Excellent! Do you want to maintain those in CVS yourself? In that case, please 
mail David Faure <faure at kde.org> an encrypted password (e.g. change your 
password to the one you want to use and look up the result in /etc/shadow), 
together with your preferred login name.

I can't remember anyone announcing those, so if you have the time... :)
