That sounds fine too, as long as you mean in addition to the above and not
instead of.

(If you mean instead of, I disagree.  As far as throwing or not throwing
based on the broken or loading state question, it seems like WebKit should
change to match FF and IE, since those two already agree, and WebKit also
agrees with one of the two drawImage overloads tested.)
