Is rockbox supposed to display Ogg album art?

Hello, my really nice Fuze+ doesn't seem to display any album art embedded in the file tag of Ogg files. Works fine with mp3 though.
Is this the expected behaviour? I'm not really sure if it's a supported feature or not, otherwise I'll file a bug.

P.S. files are tagged with Easytag.

Thanks!

I see Rockbox decodes jpeg album art on every metadata format but Vorbis... is there really some kind of technical difficulty preventing this feature from being implemented, or is it only waiting for someone to do it?

Someone to do it.  Well that and jpeg in vorbis is only semi-standardized, so its probably a little more complicated to figure out how other software does it.

There is one thing that makes it more complicated: album art in Ogg files is base64-encoded... For MP3 and MP4 it is just a plain JPEG image embedded in the file.
