I'm prototyping a web editor for LP. It's likely that, long term, we'll want to host images with a document in the web editor. But for now, that's not possible. The easiest stop-gap is to put internet URLs in as image sources, so you can just grab an image off the Web. But LaTeX can't \includegraphics a URL.
Resolving image URLs to downloaded images seems like a transform to me! Maybe an optional transform?
Curious for your thoughts, @jheer. Is this a perverse thing to want or reasonable? How might it slot into the LP architecture & UX?
