[FLOW3-general] [RFC] Image ViewHelper in Fluid or Media Package?

["Christian Müller (FLOW3 Team)"]

Hi all,

I too would like to see this ViewHelper in the Media package without it 
the VH is worthless and if someone integrates some alternative (to 
Imagine and TYPO3.Media - not that I think this is needed) at a later 
point he can ship a matching VH.

Better to put work in a (nicer) namespace handling for VHs.

Cheers,
Christian
