Well, I suppose it would still be relevant that you add it for the encoder and only report baseline there. > However, the problem is that some JPEGs in the wild have with 8-bit data and > 16-bit quantization coefficients, as per [1] and [2]: > > [1] https://github.com/martinhath/jpeg-rust/issues/1 > [2] https://github.com/libjpeg-turbo/libjpeg-turbo/pull/90 > > So, in order to support decoding of these images, I've added the precision > field to the quantization control.

I think this makes more sense than a common structure with an indication bit on how to interpret the data. However, it seems problematic that userspace can't figure out whether 16-bit quant tables are supported with a baseline profile and just has to try and see. Hans, do you think this is an acceptable approach or should we rather stick to the standard here, at the cost of not supporting these pictures that were encoded with this common abuse of the standard?
