ODS with custom animations

Problem description:
Some Impress custom animations don't work

Steps to reproduce:
1. Load an image or select an object in a slide
2. Add a custom animation like "Lighten" or "Contrasting Color"
3. Start the slideshow or watch the automatic preview: nothing happens, animations are lost

Current behaviour:
Some (not all) custom animations don't work, they are not visible in the slideshow neither in the preview.
Surely "Lighten" and "Contrasting Color" don't work, probably some other custom animations too.

Expected behaviour:
All custom animations working.             

I confirm this bug both on Win7 SP1 and Ubuntu 13.04
Operating System: All
Version: 4.1.3.2 rc

It doesn't work with photo's here either.

But when I add a shape it works.

Tested with 4.1.2.3 on Ubuntu 13.04 x86_64

Had been raised also in bug 120093.

See attachment 192827 [details] for a showcase of numerous Emphasis animations.

Lighten, Darken, Contrasting Color, Desaturate, Color Blend... all sound like they should work on a raster image, but they currently only affect:
- the text attached to the picture (if any)
- its Line property (if set)
- its Area fill (if set and the image has some transparency).

In my opinion, this is an enhancement request rather than a bug.
