The image feature is so much nicer in 6.0 so I think I'll just keep it for 6.0's package. I read your article at ubbdec.com about the portal project and what Charles said about the different layers of an application and after getting things moved into templates/language files and seperated code it's just easier to manage.
(good article too, btw!)
And hey, with some luck I'll get some sort of admin feature to generate thumbs. Creating thumbs with the GD library is easy and can be something that's automatic with a picture attachment but like I mentioned above from what I have seen not many hosts care to support that library in their shared systems.
