additional reason for load images sub menu
<tr><td>
;Netscape Load All Images missing sub menu should be restored.
May I point out that the View>View_Images(?) menu is missing in Firefox 2x.
In Netscape the View>Load_Images(?) sub menu could load all of
the images on the page without needing to click on each icon.
<br><br>
May I offer an additional reason why this menu should be restored
to Firefox. When one uses search engines some sites with
offensive naked pictures may embed keywords contained in the
search criteria (eg. linux) causing the search engine to include
a naked picture site along with desired search results containing
penguins. After reading and approving the page text
the user needs a single action to view all of the pictures.
<br><br>
For users who are surfing with
Load Images Automatically
# show all images on this page
# right-click: show this image
 
<br><br>May I ask you to please clarify where on the page the mouse pointer
should be placed for these actions? How is the right click different
from a default configuration left click over an image icon
that causes the image to load and replace the icon? As I remember,
in Netscape a right click over an image icon brings up a pop up image
menu with choices such as copy image link, save image as, view image, etc.
Did you mean to add the load all images sub menu to the right click pop up
image menu when a right click happens over an image icon?
<br><br>
May I suggest since current Firefox distinguishes images from the server hosting the web page and images from other servers. There might properly be two view all images sub menu items:
<br> Load_All_Images_from_Host_Server
<br> Load_All_Images_from_Any_Server
<br><br>Impact on code shold be minimal.
The load image code is already in the browser
so adding two sub menu items under view the view menu
that call each kind of load image as a permanent part
of the source tree would have negligible
impact on source size, binary size, and maintainability.
It should have no impact on performance if the load all
images menu item is not selected.

Netscape for SuSE 7.3 Linux has a load all images menu option.
Modern Knoppix live CD Iceweasel and Konqueror do not have this menu item.
