Not sure whether integration of my work is still worth a whole SoC, but
why not.

Just btw, those depend on D3DXGetImageInfoFromMemory, D3DXFilterTexture,
D3DXCreateTexture and possibly others I can't think of right now.
D3DXFilterTexture is quite trivial, but the other two also add a notable
effort. On the other hand, I have written the neccessary code for all
three already though, it's just that I don't have that many WIC codecs, yet.

Yeah, meshes are handled internally most times, but they were neccessary
for the DX SDK samples, in the first place.
