Set CSS class="inline" for inline image elements

[stefan-jung]

Description

It would be nice, if an additional CSS class would be added for inline <img> elements. Currently, this does not happen, as you can see in the <xsl:template match="*[contains(@class, ' topic/image ')]" name="topic.image"> template and the <xsl:template name="topic-image"> template. This would simplify the styling of inline images, e.g. to change formatting, positioning, and scaling.

This would be a non-breaking change, quite easy to implement. If you would accept the change, I could send a pull request.

Alternative solutions

Right now, we are setting @outputclass="inline", but this is additional effort, because the information, that this image is an inline image, is already defined by the @placement="inline" attribute.

Possible Solution

Set an additional class, for instance inline.

@chrispy-snps, because you have said that you want to support it: Maybe you can take the reviewer role and review #4434.
