It is. The syntax     URL "binfile:blahblah.jpg"      refers to the
*contents* of the URL, not to the filename. But the imageSource of a
character is a pointer to an image that resides elsewhere (in a file, or in
an image object identified by its short ID), so you wouldn't want to set it
to the file's contents.
