I don't think url rewriting is a problem for image url's, as long as you use path relative to websites root, it's a pretty regular way of doing it.
I'd also prefer having images in a directory on my drive rather than put them all in a db. It's much easier replacing them that way without need to go to admin and upload new ones.
The main problem for me is quality of the images. They are saved in a db field in one size, and rescaled in browser to different sizes... Not really a perfect solution.
I'd like to upload a high-res image for the product and have a function that creates several images in different sizes (for list page, detail page, thumbnails, gallery images etc.) and saves them to file system instead.
It should be a setting in the system so we could configure it the way we want to. We already have to configure all the sizes in admin anyway.
Just a thought...
