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.
