I thought this was an interesting development after the three tabs Gmail implemented. It should be noted that marketers have already found a 'trick' to get Google to keep reloading a web pixel bug by serving no content so they can track open rates. But, IP addresses and, thus, geo-location of recipients is now invisible to marketers. And the images will load faster within Gmail for folks who choose to display them.
