A more useful alternative to the proposed "scale-but-keep-aspect ratio" option would be a slider on the "Crop Photos" step that would zoom in/out the crop box shown on top of the image.

This would provide three very useful things:

1) It would allow enlarging the crop box to include up to the whole image (effectively achieving the "scale but keep aspect ratio" option). For this to work, the image itself would need to be scaled down on the Crop Photos screen to be able to fit completely in a max-sized crop box. Ideally, to keep current default behavior, the initial size and position of the crop box would be centered on the image so that the image filled the crop box in both dimensions.

2) It would allow adjusting the crop box to just the amount needed to make sure the important part of the image is not cropped out. 

3) It would allow zooming into an image so that only the part you want printed is selected.  This is especially useful with today's high-res cameras when making small prints for scrapbooking, for example.
