Well, yes, but we have that minimum set. Unless you're talking about resizing
2x2 or 3x3 images?

Compression very often involves perceptible loss of quality. If you're
suggesting LO offering some estimate or indication there might be a perceptible
loss of quality, please say that.

In this dialog, the user says what they want: They set the new resolution. I
don't understand how a "please second-guess me and ignore what I asked" control
will help. Please try to justify this proposal further.
