Comment (by acha5066):

 I can see why people don't want images to be upscaled as it would make the
 image fuzzy. However, I'm currently doing a rebuild of an old site in
 which the container size has increased in width. As a result some of their
 images (there are 1600) look odd in the layout. If you wanted for example
 images to be of the same height, so it looked balanced in a two column
 layout and you had an old image that was larger enough to be resized but
 one that was too small and therefore wasn't, the layout would look odd.

 Some images are only a little bit too small and a tiny bit of stretching
 is not too bad, when the alternative is manually resizing all images. I
 think adding this as a parameter to add_image_size would be a good idea.
 Those who don't want them upscaled can choose not too (it could be the
 default) and those who do can opt in.
