that's a good point. i guess .edc's should stay non-premul. i would then say -
convert runtime as converting JUST colors is really simple and painless and
it's not going to be overhead worth worrying about.

actually i was thinking

void evas_object_image_colorspace_set(Evas_Object *obj, Evas_Colorspace
colorspace);
Evas_Colorspace evas_object_image_colorspace_get(Evas_Object *obj);

the setting of the colorspace will then determine the ARGB pixel format you set
or get (and also then allow setting of YUV too later trivially with direct
access). this would not break the api at all :)

well actually i was thinking ALL engines would use premul ARGB by DEFAULT unless
you tell them that you want to get/set pixel data in another colorspace (yuv,
yuva (planar, interleaved etc.), non-premul argb etc. etc.). IF the engine CAN
handle the format natively (eg some yuv formats if we have xvideo accel) then
the engine will avoid any conversion internally and deal with it as-is. if it
cannot - then it will convert as needed internally.
