The Scald Extra module adds some extra useful functionality related to the Scald module ecosystem. Currently it provides the following functionality to module users:
* Automatically generate scald contexts for image styles that render the atom as its image only. This is useful for being able to easily render an atom image in the desired image style when referencing an atom in a node view mode or embedded in text on a WYSIWYG editor.
* Generate thumbnails for image styles when uploading an image for an atom. This can help prevent performance issues when a lot of images are uploaded, and to avoid problems that happen sometimes with the thumbnails not being generated until the next time the cache is cleared.
