    instances of this class will eventually be used to represent an

    images alpha channel information;

    if added to an image (via #mask:), pixels will be merged with underlying

    destination pixels according to the alpha value.

    However, alpha-image drawing is not yet implemented in the current version.

    AlphaMask does not add anything new - basically, its a depth8-image.
