You're right but it's not that simple.

We do this all the time in my industry (flattening lens distortion, warping CG images to fit existing lens distortion, creating 'clean plates' etc.)

Depends on how much distortion you have. I'm guessing you wont have the image info needed to 'unwrap' the distortion from a bow front, but you could take 2 or more images & then stitch them together (with a little warping into shape if needed).
