• Swig templates must be pre-compiled via command-line. The resulting *.js file must be given to the prepackaged app.

• Inline scripting is not allowed.

• The complete security restrictions are here: http://developer.chrome.com/apps/contentSecurityPolicy.html

• You can get images with xhr.responseType='blob', and then assign them a BlobURL which stores the entire blob in a url that looks like this: blob:chrome-extension%3A//dabmgdknkbnloipddgldbcmngnacejkh/530e737b-63cf-4309-b526-74013259c4b2

• You can store images in a sandboxed filesystem with the HTML5 FileSystem API, without needing to get any user permission. Have yet to try using this file as the image source.
