 At the moment as far as I can tell information like image dimensions is
 stored alongside a lot of other information in the _wp_attachment_metadata
 field

 This is far from ideal as there are many times you may want to wp_query by
 individual attachment attributes. Such as all images larger than 1000*1000
 pixels. This is not able to be done (as far as I know) in an efficient
 standard way at the moment.

 I propose that certain key attributes are stored in their own meta fields
 going forward
