Well, you can add the same widget multiple times, and then on initial load
just show a simple selection box. If you want to make it more fancy, you
could attach the possible images to a system settings using base64'd data
urls.

If it's worth a blueprint or not, I don't know. You can always create it :)
you still would have to deal with image upload somehow, either on the disk
using filestore, or base64.
