   I know this is almost a year old and the library seems abandoned, but here are my two cents from a fellow dev which is trying (hard) to use the library:
   
   While keeping the conversion would break compatibility, I'd say bump the minor (maybe even the major version, I know it feels harsh but that's what major versions are for) and KEEP the transform! It makes NO sense on:
   1. having a different behavior on iOS when you're coding on a _hybrid platform_ such as Cordova
   2. setting an option which might be ignored depending on another seemingly unrelated option
   3. Lastly, it MIGHT be required by the developer (such as us) since we might be doing image transformation later and we require a fixed image type.
   
   If it is technically possible to convert the picture and always return a given type, why skip that step? When reading the docs, I thought it was a tech limitation, but it looks like it was by design?
