I might have some issues interpreting your comment. Are you only giving a
neutral observation. Or also entail a implicit conclusion, about which part
being the bug; resulting in comment 36

-> "keep ratio" can be a special value for width or height in case the other
axis has a fixed value.

Means by example: height being fixed value, when width changes and visa versa. 

-> "keep ratio" can be a view option, so if you enabled it for one image, there
is some effort to enable it for an other image as well, if you adjust the width
or height.

Means: 'Keep Ratio' not being a image specific setting, but a general setting. 
It will apply for all other images in document; 

A) this is a kind of odd, because the other controls in the image dialog apply
to the specific image
B) Saving the Keep Ratio is not helpful in general. Assuming Keep Ratio being
set the default. Implying the intention is that the default applying for each
image individually until configured otherwise. This wouldn't work, because it's
turning Keep Ratio of for a single image would apply to all other images. The
default doesn't stick in the way the end-user would expect (or at least me)

I would see the point of saving it for each individual image. What MS Word
appears to be doing also; but not being supported by Writer. Would improve
document compatibility too. However no idea about the ODF side of the matter.

In the mean time, in tend to opt for Keep Ratio being session only thing.
Disabled by default when opening a document. Re-using the previous state
(checked/unchecked) when modified during a session. So the same behaviour as
right now, except not saving the KeepRatio setting.
