It would be useful to be able to put a "caption" field with an image, to somehow be able to atomically post an image with some explaining text with it.

This feature would be especially useful for bridges and third-party protocol integrations, as for example both Slack and Telegram include this feature, so it would be good if we can bidirectionally represent it into and out of Matrix.

E.g. currently the Slack bridge just posts an incoming commented image from slack by separate m.image and m.text messages:
