Dear fellow GStreamer hackers,

it is about time to remedy the most serious of all regressions since
GStreamer-0.8: the missing GST_TAG_IMAGE tag.

See bug #339704 for some related discussion.

I propose registering the tag as a GstBuffer type tag, that allows us to attach
caps to it and caters for compressed and uncompressed images. Only disadvantage
is that it won't look pretty when printing the tag as string in debug logs (we
could work around this with a bew buffer flag though if it's really a concern).

Patch will follow shortly.
