I figured I would jump onto this while I have your attention on the topic
:-)
https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio/pull/978

I've kept it at YCrCb across the board, per suggestion.

Can you point me at where the extra work should be added to the reader, to
support the copy() functionality you mentioned? This is my first time
digging into the plugin code, so I am not too familiar with where I should
add that bit.

Thanks!
