Better support for ComputerVision would be awesome. And having separate 
packages for specialized functionality is a good idea.

I don't understand why you wouldn't use Images.jl for this. It's quite mature 
and well-tested, supports a huge array of formats and transformations among 
them.  You can use Images.jl to handle the core image I/O, basic 
representations and changes in representation.

In open source, it's best to make the packages interoperate, because then you 
leverage the contributions of different people to create something greater than 
the parts (see https://github.com/JuliaLang/Color.jl/issues/101 for a problem 
that we're just trying to face now because of this issue).

Images has some quite fast algorithms for gaussian filtering, imfilter, and 
imfilter_fft. For pyramids, its `restrict` is also really fast.

These would be awesome additions. I like the idea of a separate package.

Best,
