Me to blame for being on the list. Only did suggestions on the
'papercut' without understanding of the complexity. Actually full change
of Writer image handling was not something I did foresee.

Change of image handling is not done at GSOC if I'm reading this correctly:
https://bayramcicek.com.tr/libreoffice-dev/2021/07/11/week-05-gsoc.html

"developer is going to have to be very careful to not break things."
Totally true. 

Sidenote: I personally prefer that changes are pushed into fresh master
branch from nearly spin-off point. Which I call the Justin L strategy.

As changing Writer image handling will certainly break things, kind of
convinced of that. Some bugs will be very noticeable, if something goes
wrong (especially if it affects page layout/wrap). So long testing/
repairing period would really helpful.
