Ability to insert images at their natural resolution, or even find out their natural resolution

Sometimes I have images uploaded as maps, or something other than a token.  These images often are not square.  If they're in my library, and I don't have the original image handy, there's no way to figure out what the actual resolution of the image is supposed to be.  This is most important for aspect ratio-- the only option we seem to have is to eyeball it, and I hate that.  (I'm kind of anal about aspect ratio, and want to resize things proportionately.  I have learned to cope with, but am always irritated by, players who use images that aren't square for their tokens, leading to a squished or stretched looking token image.)  I understand the use of "Set Dimensions" (together with "Is Drawing"), and am fine with that, *except* when I can't find out the dimensions of the original image... at which point "Set Dimensions" is of much less use since the information I need to figure out the numbers I want to put in is missing. Please can we have a way to rez out the image at its original size?  Failing that, at it's original resolution?  Or, at the very least, a way of finding out what the original pixel size of an image is -- an "Info" option under the Advanced tab or some such.
This is a good idea. As a workaround, try adding the image resolution to the image as a tag when you upload it.
