Hi again, I came up with some more comments :-)

From introductory text of section 2.1:
"[...] If the data is not cached, the recipient would then retrieve
the data by sending an IQ-get to the sender (or potentially some
other entity) [...]"

I think the "potential other entity" might be an interesting use case
as well. As stated in my previous mail, I think about the emoticons
use case. This time for example in a MUC room:
-participant A sends an xhtml-im message to muc room containg the
<img> element to reference an emoticon
- participant B, C, D, E and F receive the message and since they
don't have the referenced image, they want to retrieve it.
- there exists a protocol to reference external resources, which
these entities use to download the referenced data

Maybe some example flows would help. Is this a comment to the current
specs with some changes needed or just another use case?

The idea behind "potentially some other entity" is that, yes, you might retrieve the binary data from someone else in a room. The specific use case I had in mind was multi-user whiteboarding, where other people in the room might have the image (but the same might be true of plain old text chat).
