  * Auto compression of images
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77407
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34133
    + Proposed solution is a dropdown to reduce DPI / compress image on
insert
      + Requires some settings under Tools > Load/Save
    + Having options for each and every function is suboptimal
    + Alternatively select all (ctrl+A) and compress (all) images could
be useful
    + Close 77407 as DUP of 34133
    + When
      + a) on insert, b) manually
      + have a checkbox in the insert image dialog to disable the
autocompression
      + insert with a fix dpi as defined in tools > options
      + select all and use the known dialog should work too
    + Where
      + tools > options
    + What
      + apply compression to only jpg?
      + no, every image above the defined dpi level
    + What option needs to be provided
      + auto compression on/off
      + dpi with steps from 50 to 600
      + bmp and tiff should be converted & compressed as png or jpg based
on their size (jay)
