AW: Yes, i have to. This is a non-trivial problem. Well, mathematically it is
(and CL's suggestion goes in the right direction, even when not optimally
formulated).

Basic problem is that LineWidth (and other attributes) are historically defined
to NOT be scaled with object transformation, so that when resizing the shape the
LineWidth stays the same. This means that by purpose the object transformation
is not applied to the attribute (and others). This was hard to emulate when
changing paint to transformation based (would have been easier the other way
around) and leads to problems in various directions.

I already checked other programs and what they do. In general, they use some
switch(es) to define e.g. in this case if when resizing the object, the
LineWidth should be scaled (and e.g. text size where we have requests for for a
while). I would suggest to add a 'Apply to attributes' switch in the UI
somewhere, default deactivated to stay compatible. But this is just the
interactive part of the problem and i will file a new task for this...

In this concrete case using primitives will allow to find some kind of solution,
but it will not be easy. In principle it will be necessary to keep a object and
view transformation seperated and to apply the view transformation always to
attibutes.
