I'm apparently not the only one who thinks it is rather complex.

I can see a reason...  In fact, that IS the reason I made the dsize
patch.  


How about a compromise between these two?  Why not just add two
(optional) parameters to my version of the dsize patch...  A max width/
height value, so eg. "dsize=800:-2:800:600" (or
dsize=800:-2::600, or dsize=-2:600:800) would work for you, and still be
very simple and easy for everyone to understand?
