[imp] IMP4.0rc3 - CID/MIME Multipart Messages

Although they are inline, they are not imbedded in an html email with 
img src's
referencing different sections with CIDs.  Unless I'm missing how to do that,
even inline makes them separate attachment, viewed outside of the original
email.

Image a picture below.

Imagine a picture above.

Either that, or image an HTML attachment with text and pictures 
visible, and all
image sources coming from MIME attachments (not abolulte URLs pointing at a
different site).  Normally this would look like:

     ... html ...
     <img src="cid:<content-id>" />
     ... html ...

If the above is possible using IMP, it's not clear to me how to do this.  That
was one of the first thing I look for! :)
