because I love to be the naysayer, here is one:

"Modern" clients are using a small subset of XEP-0066, namely §3, to
communicate inline images in messages. A small subset of those clients,
furthermore, requires the <url> value to be equal to the message <body>
for this to work, apparently to enforce compatibility with legacy
clients.

Example 1: "Modern" Use of OOB for Inline Images
<message from='[email protected]/secondwitch' type='groupchat'>
  <body>https://xmpp.org/theme/images/xmpp-logo.svg</body>
  <x xmlns='jabber:x:oob'>
    <url>https://xmpp.org/theme/images/xmpp-logo.svg</url>
  </x>
</message>

While XEP-0066 is less than ideal for the purpose of embedding images,
and the body=url requirement isn't written down anywhere, it is
something that client developers should know about, at least to
implement it on the receiving side.
