ControlWidget with Image from file URL

Hi all, it seems that the new Controls API introduced at WWDC 2024 does not support custom images stored on disk?

I’m trying to create a configurable ControlWidget whose icon will change based on the user’s selection, but it only seems to be able to render system images and image assets.

I store the necessary image files to disk on the first launch. I checked that the files are indeed saved correctly, as my Home Screen widgets are able to fetch and display the images.

Has anyone tried out the new APIs and is able to confirm/deny what I’ve experienced?
