Here is an existing example to get inspiration.
There are two keymaps on images:

image-map:
i r             image-rotate
i h             image-flip-horizontally
i v             image-flip-vertically

image-mode-map:
s 0             image-transform-reset-to-initial
s b             image-transform-fit-both
s f             image-mode-fit-frame
s h             image-transform-fit-to-height
s i             image-transform-fit-to-width
s m             image-transform-set-smoothing
s o             image-transform-reset-to-original
s p             image-transform-set-percent
s r             image-transform-set-rotation
s s             image-transform-set-scale
s w             image-transform-fit-to-window

'n' for new is a nice mnemonics indeed.

Or maybe better to move the toggle commands to the prefix 'C-x w t':

'C-x w t d' for 'toggle-window-dedicated' and
'C-x w t s' for 'window-toggle-side-windows'.
