    I am not planning on dealing with formats like GIF, TIFF, PDF, PS which
    support multiple frames/pages per document at this time. If you want it
    anytime soon, you do the work.

    I'll perform a UCS-4->UTF-8 translation for the strings in anticipation
    of things working properly, which I'm not wholly convinced that it
    will. The C++ interface certainly doesn't support a DrawableEncoding
    type, at least not yet.
