Description
Kind of a feature request, kind of a question -
I actually already have a functional JPEG-LS plugin created using CharLS and ctypes - I was wondering if this is something that should be integrated into the main Pillow repo, or best left as a separate package.
Cheers,
Andrew.

Research direction
Start by reviewing Pillow's existing codec and plugin integration conventions, then examine the linked CharLS project and the existing ctypes-based JPEG-LS plugin. Done means deciding whether JPEG-LS belongs in Pillow or a separate package and, if integration is appropriate, defining the required implementation and validation scope.
