-**** Support images from URLs
-You can link to remote images easily, and they work nicely with HTML-based
-exports. However, LaTeX can only include local files, and so the current
-behaviour of =org-latex-link= is just to insert a URL to the image.
-
-We can do better than that by downloading the image to a predictable location,
-and using that. By making the filename predictable as opposed to just another
-tempfile, this can provide a caching mechanism.
