[Image-SIG] How to get quality of picture

[Fredrik Lundh]

The quality setting is used to create a quantization table which is
then used by the compression algorithm.  There's no pre-defined
mapping between quality and the contents of the quantization table for
JPEG (different implementations do different things), but some
applications attempt to guess by comparing the quantization tables in
the file with known mapping algorithms.  I'm not aware of any such
code for Python.

If you want to tinker with this, you can access the quantization table
of an opened JPEG file via the "quantization" attribute.
