Feature suggestion: save figures to dedicated folder #5

Hi Steve,

This is a feature request that may or may not appeal, but I thought would be worth bringing up. Some journals require that figures be sent in a dedicated image folder once the project is accepted. Might this be included either by default or as an option? E.g. on building the project caches all of the images?

The way I do this right now is that the .Rmd file has a chunk that dictates the figures should be saved in a directory called figs, which is in the doc directory. I'd think that would be one path forward.
