Prevent Guests from Downloading Images

We dedicate a lot of time to making technical images and it stinks when you see your images showing up elsewhere on the internet.

It would be great if you could restrict right clicking on image and downloading, especially to guests.  Possibly allowing only downloading an image to a set group by clicking a download button or menu option, not right clicking.

I know why you want this, but it's a lost cause. Browsers come with built in tools to grab media from pages. Right click blocking isn't really worth considering in 2016. What you may want to try is finding a way to host/link a high quality version of an image that requires an account to access, and the low res is shown to all.

that was possible with the previous version 3.4.x setting permits visitors, never let download the images.

4.x.x in this version that is not possible, that a very serious mistake that developers did not realize.
