After experimenting some more it seems that this method doesn't work
reliably.  Placing the images next to each other only works reliably if you
know the exact amount of available horizontal space at that specific point
in the text record *in advance*. This means the user has to pass a target
resolution to the parser. Furthermore, horizontal space is influenced by
horizontal margins and the presence (or lack thereof) of the scrollbar. This
makes things way too complicated for the parsers so I think a dedicated
composite image record is called for.
