Problem:
There are cases where converting an element to absolute positioning via the escape hatch (e.g. a reparent or drag) causes the dragged element's width or height to remain a % value, and therefore shrink or grow accordingly. This can be seen by dragging the "drag me" element in this project
Fix:
Whilst we are in many cases fixing the size implicitly via another strategy called as part of this (e.g. the re-parenting in most cases), to ensure that we are always doing so I have explicitly included that size fixing as part of the escape hatch commands, and added the above project as a test project.
