A fundamental question that has not been much discussed in this thread is : do people really see interest in capturing georeferencing in popular image formats like PNG or JPG ? My thinking is that it could be potentially usefull in a few situations : * when a WMS server returns a PNG or JPG. * when generating tile caches for WMTS / TMS. > > However, if used with JP2 format (specified in ISO 15444-1), this GeoJP2 > (TM) mechanism is an alternative to the GMLJP2 standard.

Just curious: what is this "geo-enable JP2K" thing and how is it different from JP2 with GMLJP2 or GeoJP2 ?

Not the simplest format to deal with, especially regarding georeferencing, since you can have different historical ways of encoding georeferencing in NITF. http://gdal.org/frmt_nitf.html mentions at least the IGEOLO, BLOCKA, RPC00B, GeoSDE TRE... An advantage is that it brings some way of adding other metadata.
