 Full Size, but it is becoming the default for future images. They're using
 Full Size without any extra interactions because it is the only size
 available for the image. In our case it is very rare that we actually want
 to insert a Full Size image, and it's only ever used if the image is
 smaller than all the image sizes.

 wrong.

 In my limited testing this does not seem to be the case.

 In 3.4, with a per-user image preference of Medium, if I insert an image
 with only Full Size available (auto-selected), my user preference remains
 Medium. However, if I *click* Full Size (even if it is already selected)
 my user preference is updated to Full Size.

 Hope that makes sense. :)

 > leedo: You said "our image_default_size was not set". Does this mean it
 was in the '''database but empty''', or '''not in the database at all'''?
 This distinction is important and plays into #22841.

 The image_default_size did exist in the database, but the value was empty.
