It would sure be helpful to have the “drag to resize” functionality for images in Articles. While you can manually change the width and height, or enter in your desired values, there is no “lock” between the values to help it scale with a proper ratio, leading to some wonky images. 

Here is the current option: 
 

Only have the option to manually adjust the width and height with values...not dragging the image. 

Best use case: 

I add an image to an article, and then can drag/pull the corners to scale the image up or down to fit the content. This prevents accidentally breaking the image or making it wonky. We’re not all designers who know the ins and outs of image scaling and sizing rules, and the usability here would be great to allow documentation teams to self serve without bugging the design team for visual issues. 

Thanks for considering!

Update: it appears that it does keep the ratio between height and width set to what we initially update. So that helps a built, but having a drag and drop would be much easier than just guessing at sizes and playing around that way, or just using the up and down arrows to try and catch the “sweet spot”.
