	Yes, this is a problem. There are two ways that I know of to
work around it...
	First way: Scale with 's' as normal, but before you freeze the
change with spacebar remember the scale value (upper right screen).
Press spacebar, and undo the scale you just did. Rescale the object
using the transformation menu and the scale value you've got in your
mind. Select the Size Bar menu option to translate changes to action
editor.
	Second way: Choose 's' for scale and 'l' for local. This
scales the object on its local axis. Press spacebar to freeze changes.
Select Size Bar menu option to translate changes to action editor.

	I know the first method works (even though it can be a pain).
Imagine is not available for me to tinker with at the moment, but I
believe the second (easier) method works just as well...
