No, from my point of view, the problem is not solved accurately. Look why:
1. Perform these steps:
a) Set the measurements in mm and set the option "Visual bounding box";
b) Select the Rectangle tool and draw a rectangle with aprox. these dimensions: W: 55mm, H: 20mm (it's important not to be a square from the beginning!), Stroke: 1px;
c) While Rectangle Tool is still selected, resize it to: 30 x 30 mm;
d) Choose the Selector Tool. The Property bar shows: 30,282 x 30,282 mm (that is correct according with the option selected in preferences, BUT...)
e) Select Path > Stroke to Path. The Property Bar shows now 30,277 x 30,277 mm.
Is it normal to change from 30,282 to 30,277 ?

2. If the options "Visual bounding box" and "Geometric bounding box" set the rules for the entire application, my opinion is the Rectangle Tool should follow them as well as the Selector Tool. With other words, if I have the option "Visual bounding box", selected, I think the Property Bar for Rectangle Tool should display the same size as the Property Bar for Selector Tool. Isn't it?
