A better solution to the problem is to add a small (i)nfo icon next to the magnifying glass which views the image page with a &showpicture=no parameter, not displaying the zoomed version. In the long term, we may also want to support two zoom levels for very large images.

Why not limit the width of any auto displayed image on an image description page to a 600 pixel width and then place a zoom icon on that image if it in fact is wider than 600 pixels? Clicking on the zoom icon will bring the user to a page that /only/ displayed the image (current behavior of media links).

I would also like to see the ability to add captions to non-thumbnail images. For example [[image:blah.jpg|right|300px|''This is a caption'']] does not display ''This is a caption'' as a caption - it just renders it as alt text. I understand why ''This is alt text'' in [[image:blah.jpg|''This is alt text'']] cannot be displayed as caption for backwards compatibility reasons. But if something like right|300px| is in there, then, IMO, anything after the last | should be rendered as a caption.

Also, not being able to have links in captions is a bit annoying. But given the implementation, I can understand why this would not be easy to do.
