this is actually a bit overdone by the automatic generation of wiki syntax.

[[image:pluginsweb.png>>attach:plugins.png||rel="__blank"]]

should do the job just as well, as long as you don't want to have params 
for the image as well (in which case you need the [[ ]] around the image 
and its parameters).

The idea is that:
1/ you can have links to attachments with attach:<attachmentreference> 
-> when the target of a link is an image file, the browser will just 
display you the image in its actual size.
2/ you can have wiki syntax in a link's label (image:<imagereference> is 
wiki syntax)

combining these (and others) you can achieve various results.

You should see the XWiki Syntax Help (which you can find in the right 
column when editing in your wiki) for more details on what / how can be 
done with the wiki syntax (if you prefer it over the wysiwyg).

Thanks.
