What's the status for the idea to adapt the MW platform for using media from Commons in ("live") image links?
I recall an idea being discussed earlier was to cache pictures on the calling MW site after the first fetch from Commons. The idea was to try to avoid wasting bandwidth by providing a means for external sites to not having to repeatedly retrieving the same picture several times.
What's the current status of this idea? Or is it already possible (and allowed) to retrieve images from Commons via "live links"?
