Unfortunately that is difficult to accomplish within xdg-utils itself in a
secure manner. Not even GNOME does it.
One solution could be if you install KDE (or at least kde-runtime) and set
XDG_CURRENT_SESSION=KDE. Then xdg-open will use kde-open which seems to do what
you want. The following command opens the image in eog for me:
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE xdg-open <a href="http://overthewire.org/img/domokitten.png">http://overthewire.org/img/domokitten.png</a></pre>
