Okay, that works, but it seems like its backwards from normal links.
The text on the right hand side of the | is the description of the
link, the part on the left-hand side is where it points. So I'd
expect that {{foo.jpg?400|foo.jpg}} means "link to a 400pixels wide
version of foo.jpg, and use foo.jpg to display that link" just like
[[http://www.google.com|Google]] means "link to www.google.com and
use "Google" to display that link".
It just seems like it would be easier if the insert-image code didn't
put in the extra copy of the filename for the tooltip text, because
I agree on this.
It might be confusing for users if the image location is by default the
same string as the image title. And in 99.9% of all cases, it doesn't
make much sense to have a title or an alt parameter that reads
":foo:bar.png"!
I propose using {{:foo:bar.png|title}} instead or maybe
{{:foo:bar.png|}} (with empty string as title) or even {{:foo:bar.png}}
(with no title at all).
* With {{:foo:bar.png|title}} it would be clearer to users what this
second string is for and it is more likely that they will change it.
* {{:foo:bar.png|}} would at least prevent nonsense in title/alt, but
still contains the needed markup for the title (the pipe). Which
probably could confuse users as well.
* {{:foo:bar.png}} would prevent nonsense in title/alt as well.
I would go for either {{:foo:bar.png|title}} or {{:foo:bar.png}}. It
depends on how often the title is used (by users who are not sure how to
add a title)!?
