But the gray boxes should be replaced by the image when the
corresponding HTTP requests complete, whereas he seems to say that this
doesn't happen, even after waiting long enough to be sure that the
image fetches did complete (as suggested by the fact that `eww-reload`
does show the images, previously obtained from the cache).
