Hello Christian,

It's a great pleasure for me to answer this question: I believe we 
already have the required changes released in XEP 4.14.

The new feature called "Image Inline Threshold" 
(http://www.renderx.com/reference.html#Image_Inline_Threshold) is 
available as a processing instruction 
<?xep-postscript-image-inline-threshold value?> and as the PS generator 
option (xep.xml, system property, API).

I believe the design of this feature is a generalization of all options 
in your suggested solution (except the last one). The meaning of the 
option value is:
   If an image appears in the document more than n times, it goes to 
Document Setup.
   If an image appears n times or less, it is placed in Page Setup on 
the page(s) where it is used.
   The default value 0 makes all images be in Document Setup section. 
This is the old behaviour, equivalent to the absence of this option.
   The value -1 makes all images be in Page Setup section.

I hope this option will be sufficient to resolve the issues you describe.
