Display external image still missing

When I want to read email that contain external images I must uncheck the box "block external content". Then I must check this box again...

Of course I could add a button to access this function, but I must remember to click twice after each mail... quite annoying !

In all email client I already use (Thunderbird, Kmail, Gmail, Foxmail etc.), there's this kind of button to display external content.

Why there's none with Opera mail client ?

At http://operawiki.info/CustomButtons#mail

1. Click on "Toggle External embedded Images" to install the button.

2. Goto Shift + F12 -> buttons -> My Buttons

3. Drag the button to the mail toolbar and or the toolbar of a message you have open.

But, there's no "External content is blocked. Click here to show external content for this message" option so that it doesn't affect the global option.

It'd be cool to have it. It also might be cool to have an option in the properties of each one of your contacts to "Always show remote content for messages to/from this contact".

As for "why", I don't know. I have to say though that I don't get very many non-spam messages that load remote content. So, for me, blocking remote content is almost always fine.
