Expected Behavior

Most image/* mime types such as png and jpeg are already pre-compressed, so when using .wrap(middleware::Compress::default()), the expectation is that the well known images would not be compressed.

Current Behavior

Currently the compression middleware only looks at the content-encoding of the response (which should not be set for images), and thus compresses images again.

Possible Solution

• Check against a list of well known image types
• Offer a way to set a callback so that the user can check themselves
• all of the above?
