Simple answer, no customer has requested this feature, and we
have LOTS of things to work on that people do want. This is
indeed on our enhancement list, as is the even more useful
feature of being able to use Img on other types (e.g. records
and arrays).

Think how much less frustrated you would be if you were a
supported customer, and when you made enhancement suggestions
like this, they automatically had high priority :-)
