It depends, a couple of modules come with images (so, yes,
possible and desired for interesting cases):

cd $GISBASE/docs/html/

l *.png
-rw-rw-r--  1 neteler ssi  11718 Mar 15 23:50 photo.camera.png
-rw-rw-r--  1 neteler ssi    618 Mar 15 23:50 rterraflow_dir3.png
-rw-rw-r--  1 neteler ssi    403 Mar 15 23:50 rterraflow_dir2.png
-rw-rw-r--  1 neteler ssi  55502 Mar 15 23:51 d_polar_aspect.png
-rw-rw-r--  1 neteler ssi   3267 Mar 15 23:51 d.out.png
...

So, photo.camera, r.terraflow, d.polar and others already
have images. We should take care to not insert big files.

Sounds to be useful.

Contributions are welcome (as always)!
