Bug Description
As pcbnew does not (yet?) support scalable graphics, it would be very nice if at least bitmap2component could easily scale user-logos and the likes when converting them from bitmap sources. Currently I have to use a home-brew perl script for that purpose. I don't mind that too much, but for GUI fanciers it might become tedious.
Proposal: Add a field for desired x/y dimension of the created module. Bitmap2Component should then auto-scale the resulting .emp file so that the largest dimension matches that number (preserve ratio). Maybe even have it create multiple modules with varying sizes (start, step-size, end).
