[openbeos] Re: ShowImage "Mirror" Operations

Tracker-addons presentation may leave a bit to be desired, but to have 
a specific funtion to map to a specific mime-type (JPG) seems very much 
to fit with the Tracker-addon concept. Adding 'writing' to a viewer 
especially for a specific format seems overkill to me. Soon someone 
will want 'red eye'-removal or similar. Unless you just want to make 
ShowImage plugin-aware.
