If output size is known than yes asking for an image for a 300dpi output device (not an 300dpi image, because digital images have no inches) is corect. That does not make resolution an image property.
Resolution is NOT an image property, it's a property of the output device. Images have size -- in pixels when stored digitaly, in mm/inches when displayed/printed. So if I want to print a picture that will have the size of 1x1 inch on a 600dpi printer I do not need an 600dpi image but an 600x600 pixel image.
In the paint analogy dpi would be liter of paint per m^2. If you walk to the store you won't ask for this properity you will say how much m^2 you have to cover. So anyone who asks me for a picture with the resolution of 300dpi is a moron. He knows his output devices resolution and what output size he needs -- he should ask for size in pixels.
