Am I allowed to grin on a Friday?

Actually, if we combine it with the idea of using one InsetExternal but 
several dialogs, then it might work really well. In fact, we could have 
support for xfig (or even for 'latex images'?) that 'feels' identical to 
that for InsetGraphics, but produces sophisticated output automatically.

Nonetheless, it 'feels' wrong to have this transformation info in 
InsetGraphics. (Let's concentrate on what we have for the moment.) I have 
this mad idea of 'two insets but one dialog'. Ie, InsetGraphics and 
InsetTransform. Think of it as the counterpoint to the 'one inset, 
multiple dialogs' suggestion ;-)

InsetTransform could be 'used' (somehow, not sure how) by InsetGraphics, by 
InsetExternal, by InsetInclude (for \include{image.tex}).

Subcaption really has to go though.
