The reason I noticed it myself is that when I first added pictures to some of my Dickens books, the resulting files were enormous, because some of those books have many MB of pictures, and at first I added all the pictures to the "Publication Files" page of Mobi Creator. When I realised that the pictures were being added twice, I removed the pictures from the manifest, and the books still displayed the pictures correctly, and were the size I expected them to be.
The way that is works is actually extremely convenient, because all my books consist of a single HTML file with linked pictures. That means that, provided I use the same name every time for my book file (I call it "book.html") I can simply re-use the same "opf" file every time - all I have to do is load it in Mobi Creator and change the meta-data for the new book!
