General Images

  • Allow auto zoom out/full view of pictures when viewing images in Gmail
  • Allow custom zoom levels
  • Ability to change the default background color/image (useful for images with alpha values).
  • Preload longdesc page and display as popup, below image or with visibility hidden (user settable)
  • Ability to choose whether to show broken images or not. Seriously, it can be a pain for developers if they can't see at least a crude red 'X' where the image should be. of course, just a red X would be too much microsoft-like, so no, please.
  • Add color management support. Need the ability to not only recognize embedded ICC tags, but to choose a default profile to "assume" if image doesn't contain embedded profile tag. (This is an emerging problem with the recent release of monitors displaying wider gamut than sRGB -- eg. Dell 2407WFP-HC -- as they display non-colour managed images more colourful than they should appear.)

Bitmaps

  • Add antialiasing for scaled images. Add an option for "supersapling (highest quality)", "multisampling", and "disable antialiasing (lowest quality, faster)".
  • HD Image (.wdp) support.

Vectors

Canvas

  • Add right-click "Save as Image..." feature to capture <canvas> graphics

Popup Picture Options, as with IE

Alright, its like this:
When you hover the cursor over a well sized picture, about the size of a typical physical business card, for about 1 second a little bar shows up that gives you options of what you may like to do with that picture. Such as, E-mail it, save it, set as background, etc. This feature is STILL absent from Firefox though I have heard there is a non-supported add-on for this feature. However, we feel that this needs to be integrated into Firefox itself, for the sake of not having to constantly update add-ons, hassle with any possible conflictions arising from having said add-ons, etc. I Still have not received a valid reason as to Why this feature cannot be integrated. I have however received Mitigation in the form of Rude Arrogance. Mitigation = Invalid Rationality ≈ Mal Conspicuous Mentality.
One would appreciate, at the Very Least, a valid explanation as to why this can't be implemented.

And now, for some well placed Dramatizations :p:
Worse Case Scenario, For if this feature is Not to be implemented into Firefox, We Firefox Users will suffer the agony of Right clicking, Save Image As, [Your Desired, Relevant, Input Here.] AND have to be subjected to the alt Browser Users Criticism and Teasing based solely upon the Lack of this Feature.
