Right, I didn't originally add scaled writing as
1. I don't need it.
2. It's a rats nest, IIRC some drivers are picky in what they take and
you would need some kind of matrix of how to best handle the different
conversion cases. I just didn't want to go there, and this patch
feels far too simple to be adequate. But then again, maybe my memory is
poorer that I thought...

Cheers,
Peter
