Users expect to find a list of supported image formats in the 
documentation. They don't want to search the tickets or commit logs. 
TIFF is also undocumented. Search for "TIFF" in ffmpeg-all.html --> 
nothing found. This documentation is driving me crazy.
Suggestion: One day per week, forbid all patches and allow only 
improvements of the documentation.
