Sorry, I'll include an emoticon next time ;) That was exactly my point. 
But it's not industry inertia holding back PNG as a result... it's a 
single company holding a lot of control and not giving a whit about 
certain standards. Hopefully now that they've restarted IE development 
maybe it will get fixed by IE 10, but their product folks have 
consistently shown zero interest in fixing this, until they hear about 
it from end-users (who are not going to be the ones complaining).

Cheers,

Roger
