Good afternoon, CMS are necesseraly used by governmental departments. IMHO, the major drawback of your solution would be to prevent users of such tools to choose the size of the image they wish to include in a page (thanks be to God, CMS users cannot modify a style sheet...) This solution might be good in many cases, but a disaster in some other situations.
