Yeah, I did.  (Actually mentioned it in my original post ;^) )

I'm not interested in loosing the transparency.  I need it in the final
PNGs.  It's just that the RGB data that lives there now is unnecessary
(for all pixels that are 100% transparent, that is).

Anyway, weekend's over.  I'll have to look into it next week. :^)

Thx, tho!
