[Bf-committers] Bounding box, linked size, and Transform Properties

Howdy,

I've written some code that allows a person to manipulate
the bounding box size of a mesh object through the
transform properties panel:

http://bebop.cns.ualberta.ca/~cwant/bbox_transform_properties.png

The bbox values, when manipulated, set SizeX, SizeY and SizeZ
so that the object will have a bbox of the desired size.
In the example picture, the object is the default 2x2x2 cube,
which is why the bounding box values are all double that of
the size values.

There is also a mysterious, badly drawn, 'chain' icon there:
this links the size/bbox values so that they vary together
(i.e., if you modify one value by, say 10%, the others values
will change by 10%).

If nobody (with commit rights) has any objections, I will
commit this tomorrow.

Regards,
Chris
