        This goes into philosophical side of things. :)
        I truly believe that for anything one might want to do -- "why not" is 
good approach. Just because there's obstacles, inapplicable cases, 
whatever - does not mean it would not serve a purpose here and there. If 
not for anything else but the pure pleasure of trying and building 
something. That's good enough for me.

        Images can be controlled in the same way I do for forms, using 
min-height *for default setup*. Changing text size might break this. Or 
layout can be custom made where images will be in another column.
        It does not have to be an all-purpose solution.

        The maximum leading I ever used was 1.8 and after a while (reading it) 
it seemed a bit too much. Thus here I'm using 1.5. That is not too much 
in-between paragraphs, to me. It's down to personal preference, though.
