This might be ok for accessing a single image, but surely this
multi-step pipeline is really inefficient for repeated event loop style
processing.

It also makes it difficult, if not impossible to process the audio
associated with these images in a synchronised way.  Especially since
there is no equivalent (except perhaps the Mozilla Audio Data API).
