Feature description

When importing VCF, please don’t convert PNG photos to JPG or at least add the option to turn it off.

Why do you want this feature?

When I crop photos to make profile pictures (or edit JPEGs in general), I save them to PNG to prevent additional loss. Converting them back to JPEG negates that, and they can look worse because of that.

One more vote up. I'll add that JPEG is apparently encumbered by all kinds of patents and licensing restrictions. While I don't understand the issues involved, the wiki page reveals all kinds of patent hell.
