Have you tried the "--page-requisites" (a.k.a. "-p") command line option?

The info documentation says this:

 Actually, to download a single page and all its requisites (even
 if they exist on separate websites), and make sure the lot
 displays properly locally, this author likes to use a few options
 in addition to `-p':

  wget -E -H -k -K -nh -p http://SITE/DOCUMENT

 In one case you'll need to add a couple more options.  If DOCUMENT
 is a `' page, the "one more hop" that `-p' gives you
 won't be enough--you'll get the `' pages that are
 referenced, but you won't get _their_ requisites.  Therefore, in
 this case you'll need to add `-r -l1' to the commandline.  The `-r
 -l1' will recurse from the `' page to to the `'
 pages, and the `-p' will get their requisites.  If you're already
 using a recursion level of 1 or more, you'll need to up it by one.
 In the future, `-p' may be made smarter so that it'll do "two
 more hops" in the case of a `' page.

 To finish off this topic, it's worth knowing that Wget's idea of an
 external document link is any URL specified in an `' tag, an
 `' tag, or a `' tag other than `'.

Could you make an option to only fetch from other hosts what is directly referenced
from the orig page?

Is this a TODO?
