Image overlay Rest API

Hi,
I have been using the text overlay for a long time, but now I'm looking for a way to temporarily show an image on a display from an url.

I found an FPP bash script as a reference, but I'm not sure if I can use the REST API to show an image. Here is the command from the script:
fbi -T 1 -r 1 --noverbose /home/fpp/media/upload/${IMAGE}

I would like this as well.  The issue with the overlay command is that you cannot use model overlays like you can in the playlist, which for me is what I would want to control placement.

Support FPP
