*cough* errm, yes, would be a "nice to have", indeed. However - I think this would only make sense with a much more elaborated dithering algorithm. A simple ordered dither will make every soooo much more fuzzy... In fact, I was reading up on dithering algorithms because of the PDF reader app (which has priority, because it already has real practical use for me). It doesn't dither to grayscale, making pixel images in PDFs look a bit too "flat" (although my english vocabulary isn't small anymore, I'm lost in how to describe those big areas of a single grayscale tone with hard borders to the neighboring areas). So, stopping to brabble in my non-existent beard here - I would really love to have a fast error diffusion dither. I think it could work well for the VNC images, too (and of course video&games). The problem mainly is the "fast" part.
