As the UV layout points are from 0.0 to 1.0 of the image, I see the
current behaviour as correct. I'd think the opposite way to you if
loading an image didn't adjust the aspect ratio, I think it was a bug
that my nice 0.0 to 1.0 layout now went from 0.25 to 0.75 or some such
nonsense.

The major problem with rescaling the UVs after loading an image is how
the divide sign is handled. I'd expect to be able to enter "s <x
pixels>/<y pixels>" and then limit to Y to revert to a square UV layout.
However for some reason, typing the divide sign forces the ratio to
1/<typed number> so you have to divide the x pixels by y pixels manually
and enter that number..

Best Wishes,
