 The only PHP 5.3 feature the Imagine lib seems to be using is namespaces.
 Otherwise, that chainable API is perfectly implementable in PHP 5.2.

 The problem though is that Imagine is also pretty young and doesn't
 support all the drivers we want, so it doesn't make much sense to attempt
 a port.

 I do like how saving is a separate method. In the interface that DH-
 Shredder posted, each method has an $output_file parameter, which is not
 very orthogonal.
