This looks good to me now, I still think we'll have some confusion
between the core "rt" images and core-image-realtime that we are
introducing here.

I may rename it core-image-realtime-extended as part of the merge,
if that's acceptable to you ? I think it will be something that
we'll need to revisit at some point, but that's not a good reason
to hold this back anymore.

I'll merge, do a quick test and push this out on Monday.

Cheers,

Bruce
