yes, a ImageUriViewHelper/ImageResourceViewHelper is missing and really 
needed thinking of stuff like XML-output for Flash etc where I needed 
(and created) one for a recent project.

Sounds useful, especially for TYPO3 v4.

+1 for AND/OR
-1 for integration of mathematical and regexps. For those a dedicated 
viewHelper would be better (you can use them with inlineSyntax for the 
ifViewHelper though).

Not sure if this is a common viewHelper, but probably more/better a 
common abstract model?
