[pmwiki-users] Images in another group

[DaveG]

Ah, okay. I'll use that, and I updated the docs.

That format doesn't appear to make much sense though. When refering to 
an image in the same group, no page is required, so why is one required 
outside the group? I presume we needed some mechanism to distinguish 
between a group and a page -- could we not use something more obvious? 
Possibly Attach:Group/image.ext and Attach:Group/file/image.ext?
