Yes. This will add to the general confusion in this area.
Another idea (that may or may not increase confusion) is to
use GNU libextractor:
http://www.gnu.org/software/libextractor/
for image type (format) detection, and perhaps (w/ a SMOP) as an
additional "magic" for ‘magic-mode-alist’, something like:
(EXTRACTOR-SPEC . FUNCTION)
where EXTRACTOR-SPEC is a non-string (otherwise it would be taken as
REGEXP) form that configures libextractor to DTRT.
