added two cases of {{copyvio|RFC2397}}
Advantages: add images in xml
Line 10:
* Web browsers are typically limited to four concurrent connections to a server, so inline data frees up a download connection for other content.
* Browsers manage fewer cache entries for a file that contains <tt>data:</tt> URIs.
* Environments with limited or restricted access to external resources may embed content when it is disallowed or impractical to reference externally. For example, an advanced HTML editing field could accept a pasted or inserted image and convert it to a <tt>data:</tt> URI to hide the complexity of external resources from the user.
* Can be used to create [[XML]] Documents containing images within the XML Context (no need to use [[MIME]]/[[MHTML]] techniques which result in non-XML).
