I think the invisible overlay will work if its span is different from
exactly the same text as the one on which image is defined.  I think
notmuch could simply copy the old definition of mml-inline-image, and
use that.

No sweat.

I'd still like to hear from Lars about the string he used in the
insert-image call: should we replace it with a non-whitespace string?
