Comment (by Otto42):

 -1 to all of this.

 Creating for display means that PHP code must runs whenever the image is
 requested, which adds tons of overhead.

 It also means that you get orphaned images lying around whenever you
 change things.

 It also means that you are basically editing ALL your old posts just by
 changing a setting. Links would break unless you dealt with them, etc.

 No, way too much. I think this should be a wontfix.
