What would be needed to implement this? Add a flag to the part and in the gui 
(default to false) and use filters to convert the parts' visible views to 
some image typ (s.b.)?

Would it be welcomed if I tried to do this (i.e. would the list help me :)?

Which <draw:image> image mimetype is generally agreed on, i.e. can be expected 
to be understood at all places? Or should the target mimetype be offered as a 
parameter to the user?
