But I think that we should avoid making embedded images default until we can provide that option. And even in that case, I think we should place a preference for changing that default.
Ahh, good. I see that you have started to consider some of the consequences of flipping the image default to embed. It would be good if you could get some wiki page set up so that we can collect all the pertinent factors to keep in mind. I'm very confident that we will be able to reach some interesting UI solutions to solve this in a very nice manner for most of the users. Being able to get a good grasp on the whole set of problems is a key to solving things well.
