I would like an image library too.  I'm not sure what it should look
like.

Some things I'd like to see related to images are:
+ a way of saving a buffer with images in it

+ a way of printing a buffer with images in it.

+ basic things like find-file... should have the option of rendering
  images (jpeg-mode).

+ I think we handle interlaced images, but that should be checked.

+ It would be nice to handle animated GIFs (and MPEGs :-).

+ The gif library needs updating, W3 seems to have more than its share
  of crashes while rendering GIFs.

+ Display handling of images needs to work better.
