	I think this is simply taking advantage of the 3.0 file filters,
which allow one to include filters in a specific place.  I believe that that
is a feature of 3.0, and Image Agent is simply a collection of such
filters.  The NeXT developer manual makes references to "user-installed
filter service", but so far I don't see how to make such things or where
they go.

It is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, .signifying nothing.
