Could an imported picture display its length and width in the object info to help with scaling it to a certain size?

Thanks

I am using picture import to create 3D models from existing 3-view scale drawings. After importing, I like to size them up to the exact dimensions. The picture size indication is very useful, but a drawback is that sizes are in imperial, whilst my coordinate settings are in metric.
Also a scaling factor setting would be useful, so I can measure/calculate required scale/scale up picture. Or even better: a double window with measured and required dimensions, so I don't have to do the division :)

Max.
