I just tried it with 0.48+devel r12922. I created a 24x24 bitmap with Gimp. It was imported in at 30x30. "Print Resolution" was set to 72 pixels/in in Gimp. Changing that to 90 pixels/in, the image was imported at 24x24.

Update - Solved by checking "override file resolution" in preferences/bitmaps. This way it at least pasted images in 90ppi, i.e. in its true pixel size. I don't know what's it's supposed to do when it's unchecked (I was unable to find any documentation of the preferences dialog) but it seems to uniformly paste bitmaps in what I initially thought was a very random resolution 0f 182.88 ppi, but on further experimentation turned out to be 72 pixels per cm.
