I do agree with you that the popup for width selection isnt very good, which is
why i had suggested that it be changed to a combobox in comment 6.

Dont think that its good for it to remember line widths similar to font name,
as most users are more likely to select from an existing list of presets than
to actually type a custom value. We did the same thing with the distance field
in the shadow content panel (bug 87702).

The sidebar never provides complete access to all features, which is why we do
provide a 'More Options' button in the content panel title which links to the
Line dialog where you can type a value in any measurement system and it will be
converted to whatever measurement system selected within the application.
