Adding a link to the new image handling proposal

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Some of the content below is slightly out-dated. The "current problems" are 
mostly "past problems" now, after the 
[http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/commons/image-loader.html image loader framework 
in XML Graphics Commons] has been introduced. Performance and memory 
consumption has been improved as expected. Still, the image handling in the 
various renderers is still done in different ways. As an example: Barcode4J 
currently makes calls against the Graphics2DAdapter interface, the ImageAdapter 
interface, the PSRenderer class and can still use the fallback via SVG. The 
coupling is too high. The PDFRenderer also still has a slightly different 
approach at image handling than, say, the PSRenderer. Now, with the new 
intermediate format, all the code that is directly dependent on the Renderer 
interface becomes a problem for code reuse.
+ 
+ Unification of image handling is being worked on as part of the 
implementation of the new intermediate format 
(AreaTreeIntermediateXml/NewDesign). The proposal is described on the 
ImageSupport/ImageHandler page.
