Is there any way to tell MM to download (and hence display inline)

Yes, there is, using the advanced preference `MmAllowedImageURLRegexp`.
I’ve been using this for years to unblock benign remote images, so
that I hardly ever feel the need to click the “Download” button. I
have a script that maintains it for me (but I have to add the patterns
manually). Here’s the script:
```perl
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use Modern::Perl;
use autodie ':all';

I edit the script in BBEdit (usually to add a pattern to `@pats`), save,
and then use #! → Run to actually update the plist.
