Comment (by macbrink):

 If $args is passed, you could do with just one.

 Imho the class selection could be more elegant. It seems the reasoning
 behind this was to select between Imagick en GD, however, if a  plugin
 developer wants to add or change functionality, he has to extend both
 WP_Image_Editor_GD and WP_Image_Editor_Imagick. I would rather have one
 image editor class which internally checks the image library to use.
