C, not really C++. No autotools...

It's good to have it compatible (though that patch never made it into a
released version), but still the extension with 'filename=""' would not
break it.

Not attaching images is important because of file size, especially, but
not only when you include the same image several times. I would say it's
important for the same reasons out which backgrounds can be attached or
detached.

Also, imagine using a "library" of images that you include again and
again, or a workflow where you regenerate the image and want your xoj to
use the regenerated image automatically.

Journal -> paper background -> Image: select "bend.png"
Save xoj.

The xoj is:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<xournal creator="Xournal++ 0.1" fileversion="2">
<title>Xournal document - see http://xournal.sourceforge.net/</title>
<preview>...</preview>
<page width="22.00" height="31.00">
<background type="pixmap" domain="attach" filename="bg_1.png"/>
<layer/>
</page>
</xournal>

Different filename. But when I close and reopen xournalpp finds it or
rather: I see now that there is a copy

2011-04-18-Note-15-07.xoj.bg_1.png

in my workdir. Is that (copying background images) how it works with
xournal trunk?
