-----------------------------------

My fix was needed because the DCT image wasn't decoded since 2005.

Right but that's because DCT handling is done by PDJpeg, it was a design choice 
(not a great one). It's not a bug or a missing feature. Now the confused user 
is even more confused because they should be using PDJpeg directly rather than 
messing with DCTFilter.

I just don't think we should be wasting time fixing 9 year old issues which 
don't need fixing.

> DCTFilter is not implemented yet
