Hi Mauro,

Thank you for the patch.

I still think documentation would be much better placed in C files than header 
files. Maybe we could quickly discuss this during the media summit at ELCE.

s/Bound/Bind/ ? I think "Clip" would be better actually.

It's not the image that will be shrunk or enlarged, but the clipping 
rectangle.

I'd say "length" instead of "size", or "number of elements in the @sizes 
array". Size could be interpreted as the array size in bytes.

This function isn't restricted to be used to handle userspace sizes, I 
wouldn't mention userspace here.
