In order to implement a Show Images toolbar button, there needs to be a method that can be called to load document images. I think the following values as a parameter should also be accepted refetchImages loadMissingImages loadSiteImages [this does not include blocked images] loadNonsiteImages [offsite images that are not blocked] loadBlockedImages [this overrides the users preference not to load certain images] loadImages=loadSiteImages+loadNonsiteImages loadAllImages=loadMissingImages+loadImages SuppressUserPrompt [there is a pref to ask the user before loading each image, this flag would override that preference] Similarly, it would be helpful if there was a status to indicate if the page knows of any images that aren't loaded [and to which category they belong].

Reassigning to layout. The embedding people would quite like to see a more fine-grain method to enable image loading as well.

Reassigning to Buster.

where do you want this "load document images" method? what do you want the result to be? adam, what priority does this have for the embedding team? thanks.

Build reassigning Buster's bugs to Marc.

This is doable completely via chrome JS, no? Grab the images from the DOM, QI to nsIImageLoadingContent, kick off the loads. Make sure that your content policy impl doesn't block them. So in my opinion this bug is mis-assigned.
