I'd like to get rid of the Element width (and height)
entries in the standard properties dialogs again.
IMHO they are causing more harm than good.

Thoughts?

It is very useful for anyone doing modelling of things with a physical
size.  I have had a use for it already.  I know of one problem only they
have, namely that if you change the size of the object while the
properties dialog is open, it doesn't update.  Do you see any other kind
of harm in having them?

Yes, please follow the give bug links:
- the aspect ratio property is not respectzed
- the grouped object properties work-around badly breaks cause it is very
  common to change colors, line widths etc. but much less common to make
  same size. The latter even does only work if all included objects support
  arbitrary resizing - which most don't ...
