Images are inserted with a skew that scaling doesn't _quite_ fix.
For example, I am trying to insert this original image:

It is inserted like this (sorry for the German UI, but you can see the original rectangular image of 4,87 x 14,39 cm has been skewed to a square of 2,65 cm):
If I scale it, for instance scale(3, 1), the image is still shown skewed, but you can see from the image dialog that the size has been correctly scaled:
At this point, if I click OK in this dialog, the setting kicks in and the image will be shown scaled correctly.
Yes this is expected and deliberate behavoir
all images are default 100 x 100
it is up to you to specify the dimensions
it is incredibly difficult to deduce the dimensions of an image based on raw buffer data
until that is resolved, it will be 100 x 100 by default
Thanks for the explanation!
