I am actually surprised that nobody picked up on my idea of
quickly-generated test images:

	https://github.com/imagej/imglib/blob/master/core/src/test/java/tests/JUnitTestBase.java#L197

This would have the huge advantage of not cluttering any source code with
binary images, growing the repository to unwieldy sizes.

Ciao,
