  I really don't think that this is a limitation. Especially if you don't pass 
the file, but the directory as the argument; that would be potentially useful 
for other post-image scripts as well.

  So I tend to prefer the simple common-script-in-package/genimage solution.


  That said, if Ezequiel posts a patch that takes into account all my concerns, 
I'll be happy to Ack it.

  Arnout
