I fully agree Thomas Fischer's way, it's useful and important on mobile platform too.

(In reply to comment #17)
> This bug is a show blocker for web apps which have to manage lot of images like a map app.
> The only workaround yet is creating a hidden frame for each and every image to be able to cacnel the image loading by calling frame.stop()
> 
> The other side of the coin: This workaround causes a heavy memory foor print  :-(
> 
> Please, let the Image object behave like in all other browsers:
> If the source has been changed the current http request is canceled and the already loaded part of the image is cached as "partial" 
> If later on the previous image resource is requested again then utilize http "Content-Range" to load the rest of the resource
