Agree - resizing is a bit too much, probably.
However, I think being able to treat images separately from regular files
can make a lot of sense, especially if we ship with kupu integration so that
using reflecto'd media (presumably a big use case for reflecto) in kupu is
natural. It doens't look very difficult, even, if I'm understanding
correctly?
Perhaps we just want to make the lookup of the proxy class into e.g. a named
utility lookup using file extension as the name?
