Topic
The instance methods do nothing but delegate to static methods (CreateQrCode) or nop (Dispose).
Taking it a step further, you could then also remove the constructor and potentially make the class static.
Rationale
Even empty objects can cause unnecessary perf hits when in a hot loop. See this previously reported issue.
I understand this fundamentally changes common usage patterns. I believe it would be for the better (less of a potential perf trap).
