Aha sorry, i didn't realise quirks could possibly affect something 
like this (is "replacedness" of broken images really a major 
backwards-compatibility issue?). So one out of three does what Ian 
suggests in standards mode only. That doesn't mean that the concept 
is wrong in any way, but might explain why i didn't expect the 
behavior.
