Image fallback for non-javascript environments
I imagine this would be something similar to Google Static Maps, where a chart would be displayed via an img tag. This would be useful as a fallback for browsers with JavaScript disabled, or in dynamically created downloadable documents (like PDFs)

It will be made possible with Highcharts Cloud, see http://cloud.highcharts.com/. We haven't implemented it yet, but we can add an image in a noscript tag in the show page.
Without the cloud, you can also implement it yourself. You need to pre-generate images of the charts on your server using our exisiting PhantomJS based tool (see docs). Then add a noscript tag in your pages to load the charts when JS fails.

This is the big thing stopping me from using Highcharts right now.
