[wp-testers] CSS in WYSIWYG

I'm not sure if this is a worthwhile solution to explore right now, but 
roughly based on the iimage browser/gallery, I've developed an upload 
plugin that uses "templates".  I'll try to correlate it to the new 
uploading feature:

In this scenario, to accommodate CSS classes and even more complex HTML 
and/or Textile/Markdown when adding uploads to the post, the admin on 
another options page would define the "templates" for adding the files.  
The templates taking the form of something like this:

Thumb: <a href="%linktoimage"><img src="%thumbimage" class="thumb"/></a>
Alt Thumb: <a href="%linktoimage"><img src="%thumbimage" 
class="altthumb"/></a>
Image Only: <img src="%fullimage" class="fullimage"/>

In theory, the admin would be able to add as many "templates" as he 
liked and those would be available when clicking through the "Options" 
(on the inline upload form) for the file.  Do you follow?  Or do I need 
more explanation?

Of course, there are issues with RTE/non-RTE.  And I'm not saying to 
include this in the WP core (as I don't believe adding CSS classes for 
"alignleft", "alignright" belong in the core), but it might be a 
worthwhile plugin solution and something to explore.
