you are correct - if you are going to overlay images, then they must be on the same projection. Re-projecting an image on the fly is costly (and degrades the image quality), and beyond what a browser running JS can do in reasonable time. Geoserver can do on-the-fly reprojection of image sources but that doesnt solve image quality issues (and is expensive on server cpu resources). You want to look hard at how the image was created in the first place. If it is photographic or similar, then offline reprojection to 900913 using high-quality (cpu-intensive) options is best path. If it originated from vector data, then go back to the original vector data and use a WMS server to deliver it in the desired projection on the fly.
