In 3.2.2 Image Transmission you suggest that front ends provide some sort
of means of warning or constraining the user from requesting frame formats
that it does not support. I contend that this is not in general possible
unless optional frame types can be enabled by a well-known option.
Without a well-known option, the front end cannot know (in general)
how to constrain the backend.

In 4.5.4 Scan area options It might be nice to allow multiple scan
areas for devices that support multiple scan areas per page. I know
of a couple scanners that support such things.
<p>
In addition, on scanners we build, each "window" of the page may have
a different format (i.e. JFIF for the color and gray, TIFF/G4 for the
bitonal) ant it would be nice to specify the frame type within the
scan area specification.
