Other day David Gifford inserted hundreds of images in a TW5 just for test. 
I do not see a problem using Base64 images in my day to day wiki, specially 
within Alpha/Beta phase. It is not sustainable, but it is possible! I'm 
trying to use TW5 with its all possibilities and all it has to offer to the 
common user. I'm not a coder, all I know is the basic of HTML/CSS/JS, 
sufficient to change some aspect of the theme and nothing more. So I'm 
trying to understand and use the filters, lists, tags, to change the theme, 
insert images, embed videos, import tiddlers, etc... These needs comes in 
the day to day use.

I don't know if the Nathan's code was really a good and necessary 
improvement but it was possible because someone found the error. And this 
is how I can contribute, using the tool in my way, with all the 
possibilities to go wrong ^^, and report the errors, what I think good or 
bad, easy or hard, etc.

=)
