I would love to see support for XPM images and also many other format,
but not directly in gui. We rather should have it as an image filter
service. Of course somebody will have to write supporting code for that
as well, but it seems like the better solution. And it should not be to
hard doing this via the code already in NSPasteboard. But I don't have
an idea on the tasks involved in writing the filter service.

Richard, could you please set up an example of such a filter service?
