Re: Multi-size, Multi-Bit depth icons

["Ben 'The Con Man' Kahn" <xkahn cybersites com>]

	Maybe imlib should support sampling with a cache.  If the image is
already in the cache at the right size, don't re-render it.  Or, maybe
there can be a way to cache the sampling information so the operation
doesn't take as long for each successive render.

(1024x768 --> 800x600 takes a while, but then 640x480 has the image data
in cache, so it's faster.)
