Michael,

Thanks for the suggestion.  Indeed `file-local-copy' would have made the
code cleaner.  Yet `file-local-copy' generates a new filename each time
it's run.  But I wanted to allow the code to check whether the remote image
has already been fetched before and so skip unnecessary file transfer,
which takes time (think of it like "rsync -a").  Therefore I wanted to
preserve the remote path under a temporary directory.

Best,
Kit
