Yes, but the reason is different. The ImageReadWriters assume seekable
streams, and PNGReadWriter itself tries to do a "stream reset" which fails
on SocketStream. That's why it refuses to read the data directly from the
(socket) stream. Which means the following should work fine:
url := 'http://www.fnordware.com/superpng/pnggrad8rgb.png'.
resp := (WebClient) new httpGet: url.
resp isSuccess ifFalse:[self error: resp content].
stream := RWBinaryOrTextStream with: resp content.
(PNGReadWriter formFromStream: stream) asMorph openInHand
