Hello,

first, thanks to Lars for implementing this!

I agree we should be careful.  Even using the keymap text property might
be surprising.  E.g. when we chose + and -, these might already be bound
(e.g. to `negative-argument' in image-mode itself!).

Let's start to find some suitable bindings for `image-mode'.  How about
i and d ("increase", "decrease")?

In the general case, we could attach a keymap text property to any image
we insert into a buffer.  The keymap should be a user option.  It could
even be empty by default, at least for now.  That would already be a big
win.


Regards,

Michael.
