I was(am) using the data initializer because the data isn't stored
as a discrete filesystem entity, and I'd like the result to be an
NSImage if possible.
Any practical advice? (Besides using CGImageSourceCreateWithData
with the type identifier hint and ended up with a CGImage?)
Well, I'd prefer ImageIO / CGxxx to NSImage.
Basically, many RAW images are stored in souped up TIFF containers
where the only "standard" RGB data is an thumbnail, that's why you
get the preview when you feed the data in an generic decoder that
potentially probes the data for JPEG and TIFF first..
