This also happens with plugin documents, such as flash.
*** Bug 16632 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The assertion failure results from calling FrameLoader::write(String) for a raw-data based document (an image) but ultimately to fix it one needs to know the expected behavior, i.e. what should the Inspector show in "source" view for non-text documents?

Since people are seeing this when inspecting Acid3 we might want to fix it sooner rather than later.

Actual assertion failure for bugzilla search posterity: SHOULD NEVER BE REACHED (/Users/matt/Code/WebKit/WebCore/loader/ImageDocument.cpp:91 virtual bool WebCore::ImageTokenizer::write(const WebCore::SegmentedString&, bool))
Seems to be fixed now.
