Hmmm. %&$§! This is bad news, both approaches are slow as hell, and I
need the maximum speed I can get (after all, this is why I'm using
Valentina. <g>)

I'll experiment a little more with the ImageWell approach, that seems to
work (heck, I could even use it as "user feedback" when importing images.)

Thanks a lot so far.
