	If you are scaling the image, you will also need to scale the 
clippath - NOT just copy it since the values are all wrong now...

	There is code in ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick for 
reading/parsing the clippath to make it into a useable format (SVG), 
though we don't currently write the clippath back out...
