In the spirit of re-doing file handling, it would be nice to be able to optionally use the Imagick PHP extension if it's available, and avoid having to call out to the shell and users needing to know the path to the correct binary.

This would also go part of the way toward making us have a less monolithic and black-boxy setup for generating derivatives.
