[theme-reviewers] Question regarding Theme Unit Test

There's nothing wrong with a Theme defining max-width for images via CSS.

Rather, what those tests verify is that, if max-width *isn't* defined for
images, that the overflow is handled aesthetically.

Personally, I would say that defining max-width is the *preferred* means of
handling over-sized images.
