Let the server scale it to this height (but not advise the browser to do so).
The thumbnail should be scaled to the dimension which is written to html. That
would not introduce bad artifacts since the server has the full image as source
available (the browser only has the thumbnail available and may use simple
scaling algorithms like "nearest neighbor").

I guess, the problem is that there is probably(?) no interface to request
thumbnails with a height specified at the scaling servers. Only requesting
thumbnails by width is possible. So my previous request is not possible.  So
this bug maybe could only be a LATER since the interface to the scaling servers
is too less powerful.  

Another option: do not write a height to html which is not served as image.
Problem: the user specifically asked for this height.
