No, the "not going to make it in" would be the Image::Magick code. But!
I'm not going saying it will not make it in as your work is lost, we'll
just have to work it out so we do something like the suggestion I made
before.
As to the resize on on image fetch, it was configurable correct? If it
is I think it should go in. I'll take a look at the patch after I'm
done brewing beer in a few hours ;)
