As maintainer for pdftex.def I have done in the new version v0.05a:

| Update from v0.04r to v0.05a:
| * New options for PDF images:
|   * pagebox=(media|crop|bleed|trim|art)box
| * New options for bitmap images:
|    Details, see PDF specification and ChangeLog.
|   * interpolate=(true|false)
|   * decodearray=...
|   * maskarray=...
|   * intent=...
| * New options for bitmap and PDF images:
|   * ocobjnum=<positive integer>
|   * ocobjref=<object reference>
|   Both options specify an optional content dictionary
|   as object reference, see PDF specification and
|   ChangeLog.

Who are the maintainers of xetex.def? Can they add the option `pagebox'
as well?

Yours sincerely
