 @archon810 @gabrielstuff
 Thanks for the comments and feedback! Apologies for the latency in a
 reply.

 First, as a quick note -- You definitely don't need to wait on a ticket
 owner if you're interested in helping out.
 Tickets being assigned to someone does not mean that a ticket isn't open
 for testing, feedback or patches.

 I agree, the ticket is pretty stagnant, so it'd be great to have testing
 of the existing patch and/or to have alternate patches uploaded with
 updated or different approaches to the problem. It's not that it's not
 desired to fix the bug, but that the ticket doesn't have a complete and
 well-tested solution yet.

 I see that you've provided a suggestion that we use an alternate library.
 Could you please walk through how that would be a better solution for this
 particular issue?

 A solution that doesn't require swapping out/refactoring the image
 manipulation internals entirely is likely to be able to be merged more
 quickly, but I'm excited to see any approaches for fixing this bug.
