Unless I am very much mistaken, there is no support for decoding JPEG
2000 in the Flash Player. Therefore there is not much point in adding
support for this format to swfmill, as the resulting SWFs would be
unusable. The best that could be done would be to convert JPEG 2000
images to some other supported format, which would of course negate
the compression advantages.
