FR: Embed images from Internet without having to download them (as in Obsidian web image embeds)
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I think it could be very powerful to be able to use web images by embeding the uri and using them in excalidraw drawings without having to download them each time, just as in normal obsidian which uses the syntax ![](uri)
to achieve that.

Current excalidraw versions support that tool called web embed, but images in that window can't be edited nor scaled it seems. Also i think doing it in this way could speed the thinking process just as in Obsidian Canvas, but leveraging the capabilities of Excalidraw, because when you download an image from internet and a bit later you realize that isn't what you want, you have to spend time by searching for that image and delete it from your vault compared to just delete the link as in Obsidian web embeds
Also, I don't know if there is a workaround to achieve this at this moment?
Thank you so much
