I tried searching for the image name in google because I found the image on the link I placed above, but didn't hit the 9.2.1 link you show. There were no results but maybe we populated it's index now. Would it make sense to have a link to the image descriptions in the FAQ? An image description page? I was able to find that which brought me to the list.
