unable to paste an image into the compose window

steps to reproduce:

1) in your browser, visit http://store.mozilla.org/images/products/MZ13034E.jpg
2) right click on that image, copy image
3) in tbird, open a new compose window, and paste

expected results, image pasted
actual results: silent failure

this is version 2.0.0.7pre (20070804) on mac os x
note, paste is disabled in this scenario.

note, this works on windows, but josh says this is a known problem on mac.
From Cocoa widget nsCliboard.mm (line wrapping change for bugzilla):

/*
  if (flavorStr.EqualsLiteral(kPNGImageMime)  ||
      flavorStr.EqualsLiteral(kJPEGImageMime) ||
      flavorStr.EqualsLiteral(kGIFImageMime)) {
    // We have never supported this on Mac OS X,
    // we could someday but nobody does this.
      break;
  }
*/
