--- Comment #15 from Michael Stahl <[email protected]> ---
Writer actually contains some infrastructure to load linked images in a
separate thread, so that it does not block the UI:

SwGrfNode::TriggerAsyncRetrieveInputStream()
class SwAsyncRetrieveInputStreamThreadConsumer

this should be used if you import and ODT file, but it's possible that this is
somehow not used when importing documents with legacy filters that operate
directly on the sw core like the WW8 filter.

clearly linked images should be loaded in a non-blocking way because you have
no idea what state the user's network is in.

also, Calc does not yet have anything equivalent (don't know about Impress), so
there is probably some work to do in generalizing the sw implementation.

(another problem is that AFAIK the HTTP UCP does not currently implement any
caching, so identical image URLs will be downloaded multiple times, which can
easily happen if you copy-paste something from a browser)
