Screenshot of small vector object with only handles visible (impossible to
move)

SUMMARY
I'm using Krita appimage with HiDPI scaling on. Most icons are small enough
that I don't think they should be even smaller. However the vector shapes
handles are too big and created in such a way that makes it very hard to move
small objects.

To move the object, user needs to click inside the handles or on the red
handle. If the object is small, the handles to resize the object take too much
space so it's not possible to move the object.

I wasn't sure if I should mark is as a bug or a wish. It isn't necessarily a
"doesn't work" situation, but it is an issue for me and it doesn't ask for a
new feature.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new vector shape. Can be a circle.
2. Zoom out a bit. In my case, it stops being any useful at the point when the
circle is a bit bigger than the toolbar icons. More precisely: canvas is
1024x1024, circle 110x110px, "Use same aspects as pixels" is pressed/turned on,
and I have trouble already at 67%, it's getting nearly impossible at 50%, and
it only contains handles at 33% (and here it is impossible: I was trying to
find the correct pixel to click on, but no, it always showed the resize icon,
never the hand one). Note that in case of 50% and 67%, moving the same object
is possible with the Transform Tool if it's converted to the paint layer or if
the vector layer only contains that one object.

OBSERVED RESULT
Very hard to move the vector object, even though it's really not that small.

EXPECTED RESULT
Moving small vector objects is only impossible when they are really, really
small.
