Please make it at least one revision per upstream *major* version of Sphinx
(1.4, 1.5, 1.6, etc). But even major releases happen quite often nowadays:
i.e. 1.5 is expected in end of Oct. or middle of Nov.

Or, even better, if you really care about those tiny .pngs, please propose
a patch against dh_sphinxdoc to take care of them :)
