I think you missed the point: image the filters should be applied before pictures are distributed rather than letting the browser do it. The reason to resize it and sharpen it is because browsers do a poor job resizing, where doing it yourself will result in a better looking photograph. This shouldn't be automated by a plugin AT ALL, and should be done based on the type of image it is. (icons, clipart, logos, etc. would make poor subjects).
