There is an ImageOpReader sitting in JIRA[1] as a contribution, which didn't 
gain enough interest to be included in the main/block distro.

I never got to complete the parts that I don't use, but essentially we 
generate any sized image (out of really high-res tiff images), including 
thumbs, for browsing, for computer view and print. I am surprised at how 
quick the Java2D libraries can be and the caching in Cocoon seems to work 
nicely (at least for our relatively low traffic sites).
