Not really. A fundamental property of those programs is that they will
dynamically update the display whenever the image file changes.

For display commands which take a while to execute, updates can
continue during the drawing process.

This was a significant reason for supporting memory-mapped images:
once the file has been created, it remains valid even while being
modified.
