I hadn't, but have just given it a go.  The files still disappear from
*/usr/local/slimserver/Slim/Plugin/Favorites/HTML/EN/html/images*

According to the documentation, piCorePlayer automatically does this
backup before a reboot anyway.  Looking in the backup file it creates,
it is just for piCorePlayer and includes nothing from LMS, which makes
sense to me, as it's just a piCorePlayer function.

Yes, I realised that, but I'd ideally like to make my pi a standalone
device.  I used to have the music library on my NAS, but recently moved
it to an attached 512GB USB drive as any power cut meant that the
library wasn't found by default as the NAS needed a manual startup. 
Having bitten the bullet with this, for a modest cost, I like the
solution a lot and it certainly makes the pi much more resilient.

My final part of all this was getting to the bottom of how LMS
favourites and presets work, which I'm finally good with - except the
volatile nature of the images folder!

As a fallback, I also tried putting them on my mounted USB drive and
referencing them as, say, */mnt/myusb/images/myIcon.png* but, as with
when I had them in */home/tc/icons*, LMS doesn't seem to recognise
abolute path names on the local file system.

Any other bright ideas on this one - I'm feel like I'm *so* close....
