Hi Adrian,

I'm not sure what 23 does elsewhere but I'd rather consider the
choices on their own merits. I suspect users will expect and
prefer the ignoring-DPI behavior, emacs not being a specialized
image-preparation program, but I was interested in hearing the
opinion of one.
;-)
I guess there is a movement towards device-independence though, and
respecting the DPI would seem to be in that spirit. In general, as a
user responsible for eventual print publication I'd always rather
specify the physical size of an image and its DPI rather than it's
pixel dimensions. So in some ways the new behaviour makes a lot of
sense.
However, I bet quite a few things have been written expecting the old
behaviour. Preview Latex and Docview spring to mind...
Cheers, Jody
