Just to have another data-point, I also prefer the behaviour that Yuan is describing, it has
been a pet-peeve for me that images seems to pop into (and out of) existence when scrolling in a
buffer with inline-images. Smoothly scrolling over images seem to be how many other things
behave, PDF viewers, websites, etc.
