Christian,

I do not believe that mode resampling is available via the warp api,
nor is it particularly conducive to such a resampling kernel since it
does not keep close track of which input pixels map to a particular
output pixel.  This is a surprisingly difficult thing to do when an
arbitrary spatial transformation is being applied.
