Yes, discovered that in the doc just after posting my reply. But, this
doesn't work on [[big.jpg][small.jpg]] links as the alt attribute will
be placed in the anchor (which is wrong, AFAICT).

Now, I'm looking into using the fragment part: less verbose and
hopefully it'll work for all kind of inline image.
