Well, it goes against what the docs says about having to specify the image
file type before the "my_image.bmp" phrase. I don't see any caveat or
exception mentioned there, so perhaps there should be one...OR an actual
bmp identifier (which would be more logical and self-consistent than
leaving it out altogether or using "sys".)
