No, I'm saying that browser vendors will refuse to implement it because it will break existing sites en masse and thereby anger their users. Ideally I think it should have been possible to restrict cross-domain image loads from the start, but I don't see any way to do that *now* without breaking too many existing sites for browsers to be willing to go along with it.
