Correct, S3ImageService is a wrapper, you can't specify it in the image_service config option.

The S3ImageService defers several methods (e.g., index, create, delete) to the image service so by the image_service flag, so you'd get an infinite recursion. It appears like theS3ImageService can only be used as a wrapper around the default image service, and can't be a default image service on its own.
