Does workshop Markdown widget support rendering images in base64?

I tried using the syntax to render an image as follows:

![<alt_text>](data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAABy8AAANECAYAAAAJx2MrAAABYmlDQ1BJQ0MgUHJvZmlsZQAAKJFtkLFKw1AUhv9opKIVKoqDiGQRFarU...)

Testing the Markdown in Visual Code with Preview, the image renders correctly but in Workshop it seems the image source is not added in the HTML:

<img src alt="image">

Using a URL that links to an actual image, works. So it seems that the base64 style URL the only one that causes issues.

In case only the image is required to be rendered, the Media Preview widget can be used instead, with the Media URL setting supporting base64 encoding.
