As long as it's not a "fair use" explosion the glass windows won't break.
According to CNet http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-10103177-2.html?tag=newsLatestHeadlinesArea, this could include picture editing software and allow users to modify images and see past revisions in the same way as they can the text.
There is a proposal to add an edit box and a diff view for .svg files (which are stored in plain text) but it's been on the back burner for 2+1/2 years.
Obviously making bitmap/raster images editable and diffable in situ would be significantly harder (and less likely to have a constructive purpose) than doing so for svgs, so I'll believe it after I see it.
