The imageio-ext jars have been in the GeoServer release for quite some 
time, even in 1.7.x, as someone added them as a dependency to the mosaic
plugin, and by transitive means they ended up being a dependency for
the core GeoServer we're shipping.

I personally don't mind having them in core actually, since they won't 
activate until the correspondent native parts are included in the 
JDK/JRE running GeoServer. But it's just me, what do others think?

If we keep them we should amend the documentation as the extensions 
would be empty (not jars). I guess the download link should just point
to a doc page explaining what binaries to download from imageio-ext
project, and where to place them.

Cheers
Andrea
