[Question] Set sprite width/height

[flashultra]

I'm wondering why you don't allow to set width and height of the Sprite ?
I am currently simulating such properties in OpenFL with the following code:

class AbstractSprite extends openfl.display.Sprite{
    
    public var dirty : Bool;
    public var allowScale:Bool = false;

    public function new() {
        super();
        this.graphics.beginFill(0xe3d523a6, 1);
		this.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 1, 1);
		this.graphics.endFill();
        dirty = true;
    }

    @:keep @:noCompletion override private function set_scaleX(value:Float):Float
    {
        return allowScale?super.set_scaleX(value):super.set_scaleX(1);
    }
    
	@:keep @:noCompletion override private function set_scaleY(value:Float):Float {
		return allowScale?super.set_scaleY(value):super.set_scaleY(1);
	}
}	

class Sprite extends AbstractSprite {
  private override function set_width(value:Float):Float {
   if ( dirty ) {
     this.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, value, this.height);
   } else {
    super.set_width(value);
  }
  private override function set_height(value:Float):Float {
   .....
  }
 }

Changing width and height will change the scaleX/scaleY, so I set it to 1 (in the code above)
I also implement some scalling options that allow scaling of each element on the scene (and x/y coordinates ), which is important for mobile devices.
