ImportImage does not work at all for me. Either it throws uncatched
exceptions or it displays (properly referenced) GeoTiffs at the wrong place
with the wrong scale or not at all. After looking through its source I
figured it would be much easier to start from scratch.
With my current knowledge of the source of ImportImage I am not sure how
long it would take to extend (slash fix) it.
