I believe that this is new (but did not test systematically).
In any case, it should indeed be caught.

OK, I hunted it down. Now, with the current beta, context (mkiv)
hangs when the external figure does not exist, or if it is a hanging
symbolic link (pointing to a file that does not exist).
Previously, this did not cause any problems, and a magnificent
grey box containing the missing file name was placed.
I found this to be a feature. Clearly, hanging as curently is a bug.

Also, I had one case of a 5.8 Mb tiff figure that caused problems.
Converting it to a 600 kb png now goes through. Was it the filesize
or the tiff format that was a problem? Note that this figure
did not cause problems before.
