As explained on the mailing list as well:
Currently, when parsing a docx, a v:imagedata tag inside a w:r/w:object/v:shape
is ignored. But it could be treated the same as a v:imagedata inside a
w:r/w:pict, both represent images linked by the r:id attribute.
In fact, we now use a pre-processing to transform a
w:r/w:object/v:shape/v:imagedata to a w:r/w:pict/v:imagedata before transforming
with Pandoc and we have tested this on many documents.
