Because in this case (only two colors, with most of the image a solid
background color) the PNG were a lot smaller. I could degrade the JPEG quality
down, but then it will look icky. My thought was to use whichever of PNG/JPEG
was smaller. Is there a problem with using PNG?

I just used the default from Imagemagick's import command, but you're right
this is configurable. I'm not sure what the best ratio is; it may vary
depending on the image.
