Comment (by jnylen0):

 We decided it was OK as-is.  See

 If we want to make a further change there are a couple of things to
 consider:

 - This should be done sooner rather than later due to BC concerns (and I
 am already concerned it may be too late).
 - This piece of information (the rendered "content" meaning the actual
 image) should be exposed somewhere.
