Hrm, maybe I was thinking of fop 0.2x

I did (re)find more info on DocBook's scaling attributes:

I'm currently working with a custom stylesheet I wrote from scratch (not
DocBook) to generate FO from an XML document, and I'm using FOP v0.93.  I've
found that the image scaling does work.  If I use the following FO:

<fo:external-graphic src="image.jpg" width="100px"
content-width="scale-to-fit"/>

then the image is scaled properly to the given width, and the proportions
remain intact.

I haven't looked at the FO produced by the DocBook stylesheets, so this
doesn't necessarily answer the original poster's question, but FOP can do
image scaling in this manner.
