I guess that's where we didn't understan us. Of course if such a library
has to be created, it will only be able to handle "static" data like
bitmaps. But it might also be made to handle more complicated data like
SVG, which also brigns its own problems... That's why it needs
discussing it. Just to know if there is good solution, and eventually,
which solution to choose.
