I think the problem with not being able to read blobs into images 
isn't a problem with gb.db, but with the Image and Picture 
types.  

Qt and Gtk can both take chunks of data and use them as image 
objects without being written to disk, but I don't think those 
methods are exposed in Gambas due to the tricky nature of 
handling raw data in a string.  Maybe the ImageMagick component 
will make that possible whenever it gets written.
