Can and/or will the Ogg Vorbis specification define facilities to embed
an image(s) within an ogg file, e.g. embedded JPEG in MP3/WMA?

There is no such specification at the moment.

I think the general intent is to define this sort of thing outside the Vorbis 
specification, probably in an ogg metadata stream. This hasn't yet been 
defined.

The vorbis comment headers, whilst defined at UTF-8 encoded text, are actually 
8-bit clean data vectors, so it'd be easy to use those for embedded a JPEG
if
you wanted to. It'd be somewhat outside the specification though.
