I honestly don't see the point of that container type. How much useful is steganography if the original JPEG is publicly available for comparison? How could anyone ever plausibly deny that?

"You were emailing this image from Wikimedia, but made subtle modifications to the file. Can you explain this?" - "Umm ... I guess I downloaded it via a noisy internet connection." ?!

Resize it, or perform a similar change so the file sizes wouldn't match up.
