Exclude Images from "Page view" count

In New Analytics, when a page with images is loaded it seems that Canvas counts the load of each image on the page as an individual file view, whereas these are just components of the page, users aren't actually choosing to navigate to those image files. For example, we have a professional development community, and when we go in to review what resources teachers are viewing, the first 20 rows are the course homepage + 19 individual PNG image files that are all on that homepage. These image counts don't provide us with useful information about course usage. It would be great if those image loads were excluded from page view counts, or alternatively a filter by resources type (Pages, Announcements, etc) would probably be more broadly helpful for Analytics users.
