Image.prefetch any different?

See original GitHub issue

Just wondering if this lib offers anything over Image.prefetch? I realize that Image.prefetch is relatively new and this lib may have been introduced back in the day to overcome that limitation.

Yes, I’ll go ahead and close it. @jayesbe it’ll be great to have the ability to prefetch a CacheableImage to avoid the ActivityIndicator.

@a-koka I agree a prefetch would be helpful. Will give it some thought.
