Hallvord, IIUC the issue is that while transcoding complex formats via formats that can be easily sanity-checked by the browser takes care of letting content set complex formats like JPEG, GIF while protecting local content, but it loses the ability for content to pass that content to other local applications losslessly. e.g. transcoding to BMP would remove JPEG location, time/date, etc annotations. The bug you refer to looks like it's talking about intra-Browser, i.e. content->content, copy/paste operations for arbitrary MIME-types?
