We definitely need an image container in kofficeui. Reggie promised
to give it a try, but he is really busy :)
Basicly it has to:
- Store the image, the filename, a unique "key" to find/reuse the image
- Know/generate the internal path (in the tgz storage structure)
- load/save itself (and all the images) - this includes the distiction
between internal/external images and so on...
- everything I've forgotten now :)
