I don't know how to do this. And when it is implemented, it must be done for

When I want a box with the width 1\columnwidth the result should exactly have this width. But currently you get a wider box sticking in the page margin. Run my testfile with and without my patch and you can clearly see that.

Because this is currently only possible by using ERT.
