Comment 38 for bug 165952

@Daniel Wagenaar - would you be willing to implement a global opt-out preference for this feature (-> allow to always import 1:1 as it used to be before the merge)? The default would be to import based on image resolution if present (current state), and in the preferences pane one could choose to opt out (no popup question on import, just a global setting).

[ The reason I am asking: The bonus of this feature might depend somewhat on drawing tasks (and might make most sense when importing high-res digital images). For me personally (or for my use cases) I have noticed that it just has added a couple of extra steps (to undo the scaling) I have to do for (on average) 1 out of 3 imported bitmap images (and which can't be done on multiple imported images at once). If others agree that this could be a useful option, I would file a separate RFE for it. A possible alternative - if adding yet another preference setting is considered evil - could be for example a new command (verb) to reset the scale of selected images to 1:1 (those users who need it could then map it to a custom keyboard shortcut). ]
