 Hi,

 a few days ago was released to the public the plupload version 2.2.1
 (https://github.com/moxiecode/plupload/releases).

 This release ships with an important enhancement related to image resize
 on client size: the bilinear resampling.

 As they said: ''Improved quality for client-side image resizing (bilinear
 resampling)''

 This improvement let people resize images before upload on media library,
 but, this time, without loosing quality and colors.

 This could be done in wordpress using the following filter

 {{{
 function resize_image_on_client_size( $defaults ) {

         $defaults['resize'] = array(
                 'width'   => 1600,
                 'height'  => 900,
                 'quality' => 80,
                 'crop'    => false
         );

         return $defaults;

 }
 add_filter( 'plupload_default_settings', 'resize_image_on_client_size' );
 }}}

 with this filter any user can resize images before upload them in the
 media library.

 In these years we assisted to an incredible growth of powerful electronic
 devices (camera and smartphones) that captures images to high resolutions.
 images are becaming always bigger and bigger, and this could be a chance
 for users to start using an important feature such as image resize on
 client size.

 I hope I've explained well this suggestion, and I hope this will take in
 consideration for the next wordpress release (4.7).

 Thanks in advance.
