What if we have a system that scans the ballots realtime and puts up digital
images on a public site?  The voter could keep a receipt with ballot number,
then check it at any later time to verify it hasn't been modified.


Electronic with matchable paper receipt has been the gold standard so far,
yes.

Of course, that doesn't fix if people at the central office change the
count beyond where a recount seems reasonable, so people never find out the
count doesn't match.  Say, if they claim people were reluctant to admit who
they were really going to vote for, in just enough districts to change the
outcome.

What was the leading explanation for why all the polls predicting Trump's
loss last November were wrong, again?
