Allow scale (the one accessed by hitting K) to be linked to a variable

While I can link width and height to variables, it can be hard to get complex components to scale correctly using them.

Having a scale variable that behaves just like using the K key would make things a lot easier. Unlike using the K key it would need to remember the ‘base’ 1.0 scale of an object.

    The ability to control scale as a variable is absolutely necessary.
