Thanks to TSref (chapter "imageLinkWrap", if anyone is interested), I
found the solution:
[for standard images]
tt_content.image.20.1.imageLinkWrap.width = [whateveryoulike]
[for tt_news images]
plugin.tt_news.displaySingle.image.imageLinkWrap.width = [whatelseyoulike]
Looking at TSref in the first place would've saved me some hours of
searching, well you can never learn enough :-/
