Thanks, applied to the block branch.
I have one question left, though:

What's the reason that we need to do things differently here depending
on the subformat? Dynamic disks round up the size so that during image
conversion images won't be truncated. For fixed images,
calculate_geometry can round down, so don't fixed image have the same
problem?
