8586	ImageFieldFile cannot be saved with File.read()	rokclimb15	nobody	"Both of these forms of data are rejected by get_image_dimensions, but accepted by !FieldFile.save().  If you use an object with attr read, like get_image_dimensions wants, it is rejected by the default file storage since it doesn't have a chunk method.  This is very useful if you want to duplicate an image behind the scenes for manipulation.

This may be related to #8208, since it is making this call before the image data has been written to the filesystem.  It may need to be called after the ancestor save to get the proper filename (and fix #8208).
