No, I don't think so. It's probably just a flaw in the Adobe engine, which is used by many readers, but it's specific to ePUB and not related to e-ink.

Perhaps the problem is not so much image links as providing a way for the reader to know that the focus is on the image itself.

Why should it be a problem? Whether the focus is on some text or on an image should not matter to the reader. How is the focus on text displayed? The same could be done for an image. For instance, last time I tried the Mobipocket format in my Cybook, image links worked fine, and the focus was displayed with a black border around the image or text.

Another thing for Jelby. I noticed on your profile that you list a Cybook 3. I have a Cybook 3 with the latest epub firmware. Would that be an effective way to test for other e-ink devices (like Nook).
Also, I seem to remember that Bookeens let you read mobipocket format. Do you find that it is an adequate way to test mobipocket files (or is the Kindle previewer is the best option now).?

I don't know, because I have only tried my device, so I can't say how others behave. However, I have seen some books in a Kindle 3, and if I remember correctly the images in mobipocket are displayed differently in Kindle and Cybook (they looked scaled up in the Kindle).
