W3C subsequently told us that they are going to deliberately make
all these images 404 because they don't want the overhead.  I think
that's too bad, but on the bright side, they said that the 404
error text will urge people to serve the images from their own
sites.  Thus, if you find any site that tries to load a W3C Valid
icon inline from W3C's site, you can try to persuade the site to
start serving it locally.
