Comment (by nacin):

 See also #18543 - wrapping our GD functions in methods that can allow for
 using stream wrappers (CDN integration, etc.).

 Yes, I do picture an API that looks a lot like the HTTP API. (This could
 be done as an interface, though an abstract base class would probably make
 sense, in case there is any shared functionality.) We would support both
 GD and IM in core, with a preference toward IM, and replace all of our
 direct GD function calls with this new API.
