Currently, only links are considered. There are some hosts where direct images should be considered. There should be a property in the dictyionary to specify whether it is supported or not.

Gallery web sites should not benefit from it. Otherwise, thumbnails will be downloaded as well.

XH will have better performances with this. Besides, what is downloaded by IHG and what is displayed in Firefox sources is different. Js must modify the original HTML document. Firefox displays links, but it initially loads img elements.

We do not need this. Using _$CURRENT_ as path pattern and an expreg in the search pattern is enough.
