That's pretty much what I was thinking too. "A way to create an image, with parts that can be edited using tags, that an LLM can deal with... this sounds like SVG"

yes but not every image/visual is efficiently representable with svgs. sometimes we need rasters
Luckily, you can embed raster images inside SVGs https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Reference/E...
yeah but you know.. it needs to be either base64 or a link

thats why .hmml is a packing strategy to mitigate that, single pack

In case you missed it—I’m not showing regular SVG, I’m showing using HTML as an image, via an SVG container. This has worked fine in browsers for more than ten years (around twenty, other than IE/Edge).
yeah I saw it, thats a crazy trick
