bug#62637: 29.0.60; Issues when displaying images

Thanks Lars for explaining.

I understand the issue now regarding indentation. I think passing a non-empty 
string to `insert-image` in `mml-inline-image` (and maybe by default in 
`insert-image`?) would be better IMO.

Regarding the overlay visibility, the issue for me was the different behaviour 
of `put-image` and `insert-image` in different cases. Which can be seen in the 
following example:

(let (content-begin content-end
      (img (create-image "/tmp/tmp.png")))
  (goto-char (point-max))

  (insert "\ninsert-image:\n")
  (setq content-begin (point))
  (insert-image img "I")
  (insert "\n")
  (setq content-end (point))
  (overlay-put (make-overlay content-begin content-end) 'invisible t)

  (insert "\nput-image without new line:\n")
  (setq content-begin (point))
  (put-image img (point-marker))
  (setq content-end (point))
  (overlay-put (make-overlay content-begin content-end) 'invisible t)
  
  (insert "\nput-image with new line:\n")
  (setq content-begin (point))
  (put-image img (point-marker))
  (insert "\n")
  (setq content-end (point))
  (overlay-put (make-overlay content-begin content-end) 'invisible t))

This code tests overlay visibility for images with three cases:
- using insert-image: as you explained this does not work as expected.
- using put-image: Since put-images uses an overlay, I guess the same logic 
applies.
- put-image with a newline: Seems to work for some reason. This is what 
`mml-inline-image` was using before and why notmuch was working.

Sorry for the noise. I am not sure there's a bug in this case, only unjustified 
expectations as you put it.

Best regards,
