It's not really a bad image, just one that's a bit cumbersome to use
because you need to specify the 'data-file' option manually.

I think what I was planning to do was leaving the path from the image
header in s->image_data_file even when a runtime option overrides it.
After all, ImageInfo is about the image, not about the runtime state.
Image creation would just manually set s->image_data_file before
updating the header.
