Thanks; applied to Emacs 28.

But not this bit. The image display in shr should be improved, though.
The problem is that mixing large inline in text often makes the text
less easy to read, and this is particularly a problem in tables, where
shr chooses to not include images at all.
shr should instead include images in-line if they are "small" -- i.e.,
if they've got a height that's somewhat comparable to the line height,
but not otherwise.
This sounds like trivial thing to do, but it's not -- we don't know the
size of the images until we load them (usually), and shr doesn't to
re-flowing at all.
shr could do inline images if the images have known width/heights (and
the images are "small"), though. Patches welcome.
