You'd go about it differently. Rather than renaming, use cloning. And yes, 
you'd duplicate that image, which is what you want anyway.

What would be really cool is if there was a way to overlay an exertnal 
image and the resulting semi-transparent overlay being smaller in its 
footprint ...as it should contain less information.

Perhaps there could be an almost pain-free workflow involving svg-editor 
<http://svg-edit.googlecode.com/svn/branches/stable/editor/svg-editor.html>
...

   1. open svg-editor
   2. place your image in the background
   3. draw svg elements on top
   4. remove background
   5. save svg
   6. create image tiddler with (perhaps referring to an external image)
   7. use a to-be-created macro in another tiddler which overlays the svg 
   on top of the image with proper scaling

All this is a lot better than pixel-based editing, imho... not just for 
annotations.

Best wishes, Tobias.
