I was going to create a similar suggestion to this but this is pretty much what I'm looking for as well.

I can understand this reasoning but there are two big benefits that seem to have been overlooked:

1. If you are using the option "Lightbox displays all attached thumbnails on page" then you can scroll through all of the images on the current page, however any images with a width smaller than the message area will not trigger the lightbox and will not be included if users are using the lightbox to flick through images on a page.

2. If you have attachment mirroring setup then you can now make use of the lightbox with the sidebar for image interactions and viewing metadata, but this will not be available to any image attachments (inserted as a full-size) that are smaller than the message area and thus not triggering the lightbox.

I'm not sure if there are any disadvantages to changing things here?
