You see the differences, if you look at the supported services. You can
use the "Development Tools" to easily get an overview.

>From user point of view the main differences are:
Writer-images allow a wrap, which is determined by a user defined polygon. You 
get the wrap polygon via context menu -> Wrap > Edit Contour.
Writer-images have the feature "Image Map". You get the "Image Map" via menu 
Tools > Image Map.
Draw-images have no UI in Writer to crop them (bug 107843).

So to get rid of Writer-images it would be necessary to implement the
services, which are provided by Writer-images for Draw-images too.


Converting a Writer-image to a Draw-image for grouping will work. But I would 
never do this silently, because it means, that the features of the image will 
be changed.
If an operation in Draw can only be done with a special kind of object, the 
user gets a warning, that the object will be converted, and an option to agree 
or cancel. Try command 'Distort' on a star-shape for example.
