 Trac is very handy for managing development projects. Yet it lacks some
 utility to create '''screenshot galleries'''.

 The new "Image"-macro cannot be used to create such galleries, as nested
 macros are not supported. Thus you cannot write something like that to
 achieve an gallery-entry:
 {{{
 [http://somewhere/img/fullsize.jpg [[Image(thumbnail.jpg)]]]
 [ArticleAboutThisImg]
 }}}

 Using HTML you are to directly link articles in the Wiki, which is very
 unelegant.

 Therefore Trac misses something analog to Mediawiki's "gallery"-tag:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Picture_tutorial#New_MediaWiki_.3Cgallery.3E_tag

 Syntax might be as follows:
 {{{
 [[ImageWithLink( <image>, <sizeofthumbnail>, <ArticleAboutThisImg)]]
 }}}
 Which then could be put in an ordinary table.
