Doesn't seem to (see earlier response).

Suggestion: add documentation of this to Markup>Images and tables in the
org manual?  I'm still not entirely sure how to use it.  Is there some
magic I can put in the Local Variables block that will cause the images
to be displayed on startup?

# org-display-inline-images: t

doesn't seem to do this --- I still needed to call o-d-i-i or o-t-i-i
even with that in the block.

I'm willing to write up the manual patch; I'm just not entirely sure
what it should say (and whether my proposed location is the right one).
