Not quite! Charles' "I think the problem is about having binary encoding
mechanisms that produce a fixed presentation" is a more general statement
of what the guideline should really be about.
Abstraction/generalization is vital to 2.0 and I think he's found a key to
doing that in which "images" are only one aspect. The more general
statement should be the guideline and images but one example. The principle
is the old "allow no barriers 'twixt content and user" statement.
