BUG: Save method does not always preserve resolution

BUG: Depending on the image format chose, the Save method does not always preserve HorizontalResolution and VerticalResolution. For some applications (namely handling scanned documents) these parameters are very important. This is a real pain for writing image manipulation programs in GDI+.

I have seen this when saving TIFF with LZW compression. This is a new bug in Windows 7 - it worked fine in XP and Vista.

Our workaround is to use ImageMagick to reset the resolution in the saved file after saving it.
