Comment (by jacof):

 It would.
 Wordpress should at least allow people to hook into this function. The
 current coding does not allow any correction from the users.

 A 3rd way to solve this has come to my mind:

 3- Correct Multimedia Editor so a user can choose where to place his
 thumbnails, internally resize the image accordingly, and regenerating the
 thumbnail. This method involves no need for changing the
 image_resize_dimensions() function, and it would be possible to do with a
 plugin.
