I'm loading an additional image via the profile picture field using URL parameters: "url.img?logo=" + encodeURIComponent(url.svg) what are the cons of using this field to also load additional user settings without making any changes to the protocol?

could also be used for example to load "&header" profile image", a preferred color "&color", etc.. and clients could easily pick that up.
this can also be used to serve a poster image for inline video sources
