[Framers] Structured import: Sizing the image as well as the anchored frame

[Heiko Haida]

Hi Rick, 

for example, in our standard XML, a graphic is represented like this: 

<Graphic file="xxx.eps" align="acenter" angle="0.000" cropped="0"
float="0" height="0.770in" nsoffset="0.000in" position="below"
width="4.528in" impang="0.000" impby="ref" impsize="4.500in 0.697in"
sideways="0" xoffset="0.014in" yoffset="0.032in"/> 

As you can see, there are a lot more entries, "height" and "width"
belong to the frame, the size of the graphic itself is defined in
"impsize".
In this case, FM was used as XML editor, so that there is no need to
translate all these attributes. The r/w-rule only says: 

element "Graphic" {
  is fm graphic element;
    } 

You would have to add either "impsize" attributes or "dpi" values. 
I do not think this could be done by a r/w-rule.
