Would it be possible for the information bar (sorry, not sure of the tech term) that appears when a popup has been blocked, to appear if an image has been resized? I often find that I don't realise an image has been resized if the image has only been slightly shrunk.

Sorry if this has been posted already, I did search but couldn't find anything.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a large image

Actual Results:  
Image is shrunk, but there is not much visual feedback to indicate this has happened.

Expected Results:  
Information bar should appear.

Attachment: Mock-up of idea

Here's a mock up of how the dialog could look, in case my post wasn't clear.

You should that the cursor changes into a magnifying glass on the picture if the image is resized.

I have noticed that, but make a point of putting your cursor over the image you don't notice.

Definitely not the right UI for this, I could see some sort of pseudo image toolbar, but not in this way.
