Yes, it's a GtkHtml bug. GtkHtml keeps an in-memory cache of images by URI, I guess to reduce memory usage if the same image is used multiple times. Each entry is reference-counted, so when you deleted the image the reference count for it -should- have dropped to zero and caused the cache entry to be removed. Looks like it's either not decrementing the reference count on deletion or something else is still holding a reference. So the cache entry is not removed. Then when you insert the modified image from the same URI, GtkHtml says "oh, I already have this URI in my cache" and displays the old image. Evolution, OTOH, ignores GtkHtml's internal cache and reads the image files for itself prior to encoding them for transport.
