   + 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
