The only drawback to it working like this is that it would require an active Internet connection to work, which 99% of the time isn't an issue at all. So don't go crazy trying to figure it out.
Drop the column name onto the portrait/picture icon in the topic view, don't drop it into a normal text box. The tool will then fetch the image from the URL during the conversion process. (see attached picture)
