* Image store references #PurpleImage's by a simple integer value.
* It's a convenient way to embed images in HTML-like strings.
*
* Integer ID's are tracked for being valid - when a image is destroyed, it's
* also removed from the store. If the application runs for a very long time and
* all possible id numbers from integer range are utilized, it will use
* previously released numbers.
