[BioC] baseMapType support for "image" in AnnotationDbi?

Hello,

how can I create an annotation package for a platform where the
primary is an I.M.A.G.E. clone ID?
I would rather do everything within BioConductor instead of resorting
to mapping these IDs to a Genbank ID via a web interface and then
using makeHUMANCHIP_DB (AnnotationDbi) which accepts "gb", "ug", "eg",
"refseq" or "gbNRef".
This type of ID "image" used to be supported in the baseMapType of ABPkgBuilder.

Many thanks.
James.
