it would be not that hard to write a native D png loader. and, maybe,
simplistic but working jpg loader, as we have jpegd and stb_image

stb_image already ported.

it's a plugin-based image reading/writing library, with a very simple C
interface. it can use various libraries to read png, jpeg and so on.
not very popular, though.
