BMP file format support is missing

[github-polymer-user]

var jpeg = require('jpeg-js'); var bmp = require("bmp-js");

            if(ext=="png") {
                var png = new PNG();
                fs.createReadStream(fileData)
                  .pipe(png)
                  .on('parsed', function() {
                    callback(this, this.width, this.height);
                  });
            }
            if(ext=="jpg" || ext=="jpeg") {
                var jpegData = fs.readFileSync(fileData);
                fileData = jpeg.decode(jpegData, true);
                callback(fileData, fileData.width, fileData.height);
            }
            if(ext=="bmp") {
                var bmpData = fs.readFileSync(fileData);
                fileData = bmp.decode(bmpData, true);
                callback(fileData, fileData.width, fileData.height);
            }

One of the most important reasons for adding jpeg support was the png sizes. They are bigger than jpg. AFAIK, bmp images are even bigger than PNGs.

Why not converting bmp files into jpg or png before comparing ? I can't come up with a scenario you would definitely need BMP...
