Many of my tables contain images. It would be nice to be able to view them in vitables.

Assume there are N images of size W,H. The following are common:

-- Arrays, EArrays, CArrays of the form: (W,H), (W,H,3), (N,W,H), (N,W,H,3), (N,W*H) assuming W==H

-- VLArrays of the form: (N,W*H) assuming W==H, or (N,W*H) with another (N,2) array containing W,H

-- VLArrays containing pickled Python arrays

The W==H case means that the images are square (libraries using this code will just reshape the arrays after accessing them.)

It would be nice to be able to view these somehow.

(It might also be nice to view something like sparklines for 1D slices)
