Comment:

 I don't think that they should automatically populate. I would say that,
 without any exaggeration, 99%+ of the time that I call add_image_size(), I
 ''don't'' want them in that dropdown. I would say that almost every single
 plugin that adds a new image size probably also does not want its sizes
 selectable in the media modal. If I ever do want a custom image size added
 to that dropdown, I want to be quite deliberate about it (regarding what
 it says, the order in which it appears, etc), and the filter is the ideal
 way to do that.

 Personally, I think that this should remain as-is.
