Bug Description
Hi Friends,
I can't believe this has not been reported, so chances are that I just don't know the proper search terms. If path has any width between 0.001 and 0.04 mm, the bounding box is offset from the path. I've only found this for mm units, and only between those values. The same numeric values for pixels does not show the offset. But I haven't checked all the possible units.
I'll attach a file, but you should be able to see the same problem (unless it's been reported and fixed, and i simply can't find the report). Select the rectangles in the attached file, to see the problem.
Also, this is using Visual Bounding Box. Inkscape 0.48.1 on Windows 7, 64-bit.
Thanks,
Brynn
PS -- this is especially important for users of certain cutter/plotter machines, which only work when stroke widths are set to 0.01 mm

Reproduced with Inkscape 0.48.4 and current trunk r12000 on OS X 10.7.4.
Similarly, converting stroke to path produces no precise results for paths with such small stroke widths (as if hitting a lower minimal stroke width limit, somewhere close to 0.1 px) - in current stable as well as latest trunk (cairo 1.12.2, cairo 1.12.8).
