AHA! I figured it out by dissecting the X-Face patch by Tamo. For
posterity, here's how you do it:
echo -e '2;3;\n0;1;0;0;0;0;0;0;0;0;./test.jpg\n4;\n3; | w3mimgdisplay
Now, I'm not 100% sure WHY it works or what the other commands are in
there for, but it does work.

That's not true: it does not have to be a persistent process. It's
just that w3m uses it as a persistent process to handle scrolling
around without needing to keep fork()/exec()'ing all the time.
This all said, while it's nifty and all, w3m is a nicer *viewer*
because it handles all the scrolling and such.
However... this may be useful for viewing images *inline* (if they're
small enough)... time to play around! :)
