[[Inline(attachment:<type>:<id>:<file>)]]  maybe with some optional 
arguments, like:
 * boxed=1 for having a border around the attachment
 * float=left/right for placing the attachment in a floating div
 * format=raw for by-passing syntax highlighting

[[Img(attachment:<type>:<id>:<file>,width=200,height=200,title="My 
picture")]] ...to be reminiscent of the IMG tag,
but the Image() macro should work the same.

Ok, so let's have the following Wiki syntax 
{{{attachment:<type>:<id>:<file>}}}  for generating the link,
and the rest of the functionality implemented with Macros.
