Interesting.  So, the full set of objects is never stored with the image, but is 
always reconstituted by some set of source statements?  If so, how does this 
source get created?  Is it just a record of every statement I typed and 
evaluated before saving the image, or is it a nicely factored and cleaned up 
version of this, or something else?
