images, script, and object/embeds (I would expect) are not as synchronous. For images you'd likely get the smallest DOM box model (with no dimensions) until some bytes of the headers have been received by the client. If you run the fx and you have an effect on the width/height then you'd better consider this little dilemma.
Same could go with embeds that you'd like to resize, for example Youtube videos.
