This looks okay to me.  And the default looks safe.

Just to confirm, mm-html-blocked-images would block the downloading of
remote images, but images that are embedded in the email and referenced
using a cid would still be displayed?

I'm afraid I don't understand well enough how variable obsolescence
works in Emacs to be sure.  
mm-inline-text-html-with-images is documented in terms of retrieving
messages, and non-nil means to allow retrieval.  mm-html-inhibit-images
would apparently control display of any images (even ones embedded in
the email), and non-nil means *not* to display.

Right.  We might want to add a note to the MH-E user guide that mentions
these variables.  But I don't think any changes are needed in the code.

I don't see any references, no.
