Same thing happens in sakura (another vte-based terminal) so I'm not
sure if the problem lies in vte or something else, but in any case it
does not seem to be only linked to xfce4-terminal.

I wasn't aware one could display images like this inside a terminal, so
I guess it requires some specific features which might just not be
implemented there. But I don't know w3m-img so I could tell what.
