Earlier versions of WebKit offered the ability to view EXIF info for embedded images if one opened the image in its own window or tab and then opened a context menu (i.e. right-clicked it). Current ToT does not, and this functionality appears to have disappeared somewhere between r14382 (which has 'Show EXIF data' as a context menu option) and r14434 (which does not). I know that there has been some changing of how images are handled when they are viewed alone in a window or tab, and I'm guessing this is related. For what it's worth, as a photo nerd, I rather liked the ability to do this without having to drag the image to Photoshop.

So:
a) any chance this functionality is coming back?
b) could it, perchance, work on *any* image, not just one opened in its own window or tab? (this would be nice) c) should I file an entry in Bugzilla, and does this count as a regression? (it appears to be a feature removal, and I don't know if it was an unsupported feature and thus doesn't count, or if it might be intentional)

Thanks,
Kevin Broderick
