I am unable to locate any code that would allow me to create an internal link represented by an internal image.
This is not possible.
Indeed - see http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=539 (I must finish off those hacks of mine...)
Because then users couldn't easily navigate to the image's description page anymore.
We could add a "link=article title" parameter to the image syntax, so clicking the image links to [[article title]], *but* with a little note below the article heading, similar to the REDIRECT thing; like "see the image description page [[here|image:xyz.jpg]]".
Hm, that's an interesting suggestion... "Note: The image you clicked to reach this page was [[Image:$1]]" Of course, it wouldn't work for linking an image to an external (or interwiki) target, or linking to nowhere (see the bug for why this might be desirable), but it's an interesting option; I'll add it to the bug discussion for future reference...
