 Since gdal supports the creation of Imagine .rrd overviews, could the
 functionality be added to QGIS?  It would be more safe, not affecting the
 original raster, and would add a level of compatibility with other GIS
 programs.  This is especially important with large images, the process of
 pyramid creation is lengthy and really doesn't need to be repeated for
 each software package.
