A) It started with the need of drawing a short line (with the mouse) with a
arrow at both ends, and concluding those arrow-heads overlapping. So this is
the 'main' issue

B) As a result I started to look how to solve the problem. So looking through
the list of arrow heads in the for a smaller one, I the assumption it might
list a pre-defined sizes of the same arrow. A bit similar to how you can choose
between line thickness; it also gives a list of options/previews instead a just
an spinbox for input.

I didn't even consider that this could be controlled by value... Makes sense in
hindsight. Hence request for adding it to sidebar. 

C) Other curious fact: if you adjust the line thickness the arrows
increase/decrease too. Nothing saying this is undesired in general. But there
nothing in the UI suggesting arrow heads size being adjusted in sync with line
thickness. There is no way to adjust the line thickness without the arrow-heads
