There's a completeness issue here as well. {{filepath}} exists and accepts
parameters, hence it should work for all types of media. In particular page
number parameter is part of core, but even beyond that for completeness sake it
should work with all possible parameters (like tiff files can specify lossy vs
lossless thumbnail). Obviously that's a bit of an ideal world thing, allowing
arbitrary image parameters is not a very high priority thing, and might be
rather complicated. But it would be nice.

For interest, original reason for adding a width parameter was "Requested by
Krinkle for his Wordpress plugin (PhotoCommons)" (According to the commit
summary of r80381)


/me would kind of be curious to see how {{filepath}} is actually used in
practice as it seems to be one of the more useless magic words...
