Didn't you all understand my funny English?  Does Gnus demand
that users use only images that Gnus (or Emacs) provides?  Isn't
it a policy of Gnus that all are fully customizable?  Or did I
miss something?

In the present way of Gnus, there is almost no room for
unprivileged users to customize the directory in which Gnus
finds image files.  For instance, if a user wants Gnus to use
images installed in the ~/images directory even if the ones Gnus
provides are in "gnus/../../etc/images" or "gnus/../etc/images",
how does a user tell Gnus about it?  Although there might be no
such users and I'm not an unprivileged user, I stated a principle.

If users are allowed to modify `image-load-path' like
`load-path', Gnus should respect it (and I presented a way to
achieve it).  Otherwise, Gnus should provide some variable by
which users tell Gnus where to find images.

Regards,
