It sure would be convenient, but as long as the already provided "outer-box" dimensions are accurate, you can always calculate the rest if you have the source files.
Sometimes I noticed that downloaded STL files have a very strange 100% size, and typically I don't have the source files for these, or I don't have them in a file format that I can use (I'm a total CAD-software noob using only Sketchup 8).
So imho, yes, I'd like that feature, too. But I guess it's not a very high priority.
Also, for that feature to be really useful, it needs to be quite mighty (measure radius and measure from center of a circle to a line or stuff like that). I've seen that on ProE / Creo and it doesn't seem to be a trivial thing. Also, Creo is a nightmare to use! Better to keep Cura simple

In theory, yes. But, is that something that should be in Cura? I'm not yet sure.
