I was looking for this for a long time for Kopete too. The lack of the ability 
to use a QImage or QPixmap for a HTML image in KHTML is severely limiting.

The only way I could figure out was the way you described, saving it to a temp 
file.

Ideally, I wish there was a QPixmap / QImage constructor for HTMLImageElement.
Then you could just append it into the DOM.

Such a thing would need to assign some random string for the src paramater, 
but I think that's not such a big deal.
