Not a bad idea, this kind of hacks can work fine. I had think before
on this idea, using links. But I still dislike it.... 

For me having the image files hanging arround my directory makes me
kind of crazy, even if they are not taking any space. But the more
files I see the more difficult I work (working under pure shell
enviroment).

I have thought in another kind of hack...

   # (cd ../html && wml ../wml/test.wml -o test.html )

This has some problems with the `included' files, it cannot find them
(yes, because they are in another directory). This can be solved with
`-I' flag:

   # (cd ../html && wml ../wml/test.wml -o test.html -I../wml )

I will work with this idea and see how it works for me.
