Title: Integrating FancyBox to core

I guess it would be better to offer ability to browse images within post as part of core feature than through an addon.

If I'm not wrong there is something planned for 1.1. Meanwhile we can use the addon which works great ;)

Yup, not sure which direction we will go on this, either FB or an adaption of the poor mans lightbox that I did.  Certainly having a better "zoom" is needed for the thumbnails, just not sure how many bells and whistles should be core.

Quote just not sure how many bells and whistles should be core.

This certainly qualifies to it (in my opinion). Because there was a time when talking through images were not easy due to slow internet speed. But now a days, even developing countries have speeds good enough to allow uploading and viewing images with ease. That is certainly a change in scenario for web apps and what they should be offering to end user.
