| This prevents us from compressing the files in the background, which
would be nice and make the code simpler too. What is the exact reason?

| When we are here, the direcotory has been moved once anyway, so all
temporary files are better written by now. So something is wrong if this
is needed.

compression part?

sorry, I should've been more verbose about the comment. Batik is
apparently incapable of writing png files that do not have a .png
suffix, so compress was not only consuming the tilesets but also the
single png files in the working directory.
if compress only looks at tileset directories now then this becomes a
non-issue automatically.
