[Feature Request]: Disable PNGInfo

[WASasquatch]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues and checked the recent builds/commits

What would your feature do ?

I personally find the PNGInfo a gimmick, and abusing PNG Tags concept, which is for ownership information and camera information for post processing.

Is this able to be disabled? I shouldn't have to sanitize my creations before I share them, and I myself have warned a few people that they were selling assets with full reproducibility and ability to easily derive from, no payment necessary, cause their preview images load fine into webui. Pretty sure a lot of modern image editors respect PNG Info and roll it over to new saves, too even if you edit it (like post processing).

Proposed workflow

1. Go to Settings
2. Disable PNGInfo
3. Incorporate program level logic for send to image if it relies on it.

Additional information

I don't feel this is safe default behavior for a end-point usage utility. That's like if TIFF had save layers by default, or meta data stating every filter/operation used in a DCC.

Under the "Saving images/grids" section in settings there is a setting called "Do not add watermark to images". I think that does what you're asking here.

@ClashSAN consider closing this since this feature is already there

That's a pretty interesting title since it's PNG Info and PNG Tags system. I can see why I overlooked it. Like, what is "chunks" lol? This could use better naming, relating to what is actually used in the UI/Code.

'Chunks' refer to additional data that is being saved with the file. The PNG file structure is made up of different chunks of data, and some of them are for image, others are for metadata like comments

But in fact that terminology is not used for this. The method is called PNG Tags, based on TIFF Tags. I dunno where chunks is coming in. It's just header tags.
