remove image from links panel
In the Links Panel, it would be very handy to remove an image that is listed simply by right clicking on it and removing it.
For example, I just manually removed over 500 images from image frames using the direct select tool. Theoretically, I could have selected those 500 images in the Links Panel, and removed them in the right click menu.

There is a script by Peter Kahrel which just does exactly what you’re looking for.

Hope you find this useful.

I would LOVE to be able to select a lot of images in the links panel (it may be all PNGs, or all bitmaps, or all lores) and then delete them with one click – but keep the image frames.

No it is not.
Situation:
I have 10pages of document. Then i will open links panel, select 18 links od 5 diferent pages (nothing selected on page) then run the script. Script will delete all unlocked graphis and left Empty Frame. Idea is: I will select 20 links on links panel then click on trash icon and all frames with this links will be deleted on multiple pages. -
