I just tried to copy-paste an image from Inkscape to Gimp. It seems as if the bitmap data is automatically scaled by Inkscape or Gimp, based on the size of the image in the SVG (optimized for printing).
Is there a simple way just to copy the actual bitmap data without duplicating the image and resizing it to the original pixel size?
It's not based on pixel size but "dpi"-value; the higher the value the smaller the representation. I believe there's an entry in Preferences to maintain original dpi settings of imported raster images. Can't check right now.
I use Inkscape and Gimp.

Maybe you are looking for the extract image tool ? Go to Extensions > Images > Extract an image…
