Yes, this is correct. Actually, the htdig/Images.cc code is
languishing a bit. It has not been cleaned up to use the new
Transport code, so it still doesn't support HTTP/1.1 or any of those
new features.
I don't think it would be too hard to make this code call
ExternalParser on an image if that's the route you're taking.
