I agree this support is missing. For my Iconology project (http://miller.emu.id.au/cgi-bin/icomp-cgi/iconology/) which is driven with my Icon Compositor project (http://icon-compositor.sourceforge.net/) I want to be able to enumerate the constituent copyright holders for compound images. To see what I mean, take a look at http://miller.emu.id.au/cgi-bin/icomp-cgi/iconology/?q=doc&s=sci-fy-by-rhandros-dembicki/folder-builder.icomp&t=abyssinian/cat_abyssinian_03.txt There are three copyright holders in this example, (1) the anonymous abysinnian cat photo, Rhandos for his note book image, and myself for the script which glues the two of them together. Plus, of course, the license on the final image. I would be *really* nice to be able to embed *all* of this information in the resulting PNG file. So, yes, I think that the API would benefit from being broader than just the license.
