JPEG Lossless does not support non-rgb colorspaces

[foxyshadis]

I think I noticed this as far back as B2, actually, and it totally slipped my mind. Any colorspace other than true RGB isn't transformed correctly from JLS, instead it just treats all panes as RGB. Here are a few examples:

original PNG
JLS RGB
JLS (R-=G, B-=G) (now known as YCoCg)
JLS (R-=G, B-=(R+G)/2)
JLS YCbCr (Jpeg color)
JLS YCbCr (Jpeg2k color)

It doesn't overly bother me, I only use the format as mid-term storage when I don't want to store some enormous psd for six months. But I thought you'd like to know so you could keep it in mind in the future.

Hello !

• Well, except for the original PNG, I get 404_s for all other images…

Oops! I left the png extension on them all. Fixed now.

Again !

They don't seem supported by my browser. Nothing is displayed but the lovely [ x ] mark…
• IE6+Maxthon interface here…

- I'll try to save one to see in XnView …

Any word on this? I keep a number of these files around, because they're often the tightest lossless compression format, and it's really handy to be able to open one in xnview for batch exporting a bunch of stuff.

I could sacrifice space for compatibility and use png or j2k (or tiff or...), or sacrifice perfect lossless and use jpeg max quality, but I'd hate to have to.

(btw, the format definitely isn't supported by any browser or plugins that I know of, it's an editing format only.)
