I see, thank you.
But what about other ways to reach the same goal?
Like supporting image spec placed on 'before-string' instead of 'display':
(progn
(erase-buffer)
(insert " ")
(setq o (make-overlay (point-min) (point)))
(overlay-put o 'display
(propertize " text after image"
'before-string
(create-image "splash.svg" nil nil
:max-height
(default-font-height)))))
If this worked, I would actually prefer it.
