Whatever needs to be done.

Looking at the code a class isn't justified anyway. To me simple script if loaded with require()
like it is done in index_ts.phpmakes more sense then this kind of pseudo-OO. I know this tradition
has been started by Kasper, but I had hoped that now with all the fresh air around, we can get rid
of such oddities.

BTW, the code belongs IMHO to sysext/cms if it's FE only. Next to showpic.php which is - aha - also
a script.
