A less explicitly presentational approach I read recently (in Dan Cederholms's new book) was to have a single class 'alt' (for alternative) which you assign to some of your images. Then in your theme you have one rule for all images, say aligned left, and another rule for images with the alt class, probably aligned right. Later if you change the default to be non aligned (or floated) with an orange border, and the alternate to be floated right with a green border, your class name is still 'correct'. it is an alternative to the default.
