The team has started working on this request. As a first step they want to understand the requirements correctly and build the right feature set based on the feedback gathered.

An error occurred while saving the comment Renae, nope, I don't know a way to measure a part of a curved line, except making a duplicate of the line and cutting the excesses where you need. You have to define a portion anyway, right?
If you don’t like scripts, you can view the length in Document Info panel. This and other solutions are listed here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/measure-the-length-of-a-path-in-illustrator/td-p/4526937
Some links to scripts are there too, and some you can find elsewhere, like https://technicalillustrators.org/2010/04/path-area-and-perimeter-in-illustrator/
Also, you can use Dynamic Measure from Astute Graphics plugin pack, it makes it more intuitive.

An error occurred while saving the comment You can type any units you want, and Illustrator will recalculate these into current document units... But I suppose this is not what you want, right? Perhaps you want to be able to switch document units while you create a shape, when the dialog is displayed? Ctrl+Alt+Shift+U hotkey does not do anything it these, although works elsewhere.

An error occurred while saving the comment Interesting.
Illustrator uses ETX character (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-of-Text_character) to break lines, instead of EOL/NEL chars or CR+LF, obviously.
When I try to paste the text from the canvas that has a line break, it get pasted in an artboard’s name fine, both lines combined in one, except for the square instead of the break, and it is not displayed at all when you finish editing the name. This is not wrong, but not correct at the same time.
However, I can export an artboard with such a name just fine, no errors...
Michael, can you provide the file to look at? Strip it from anything else but names. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Ramoses, I think you’d have to share the file to investigate this.

An error occurred while saving the comment Still, why not to just dock one panel to another?
An error occurred while saving the comment This is exactly why Properties panel was introduced, but failed to achieve.
I’d suggest to use Appearance panel instead, which allow to access both stroke and color panels in the same way.But answering the question, I’d say 'to avoid cluttering'. Adding a selector can lead to adding some other UI elements from a Stroke, and in the end we get another panel that allows to set some things, but not others, and two intermixed panels instead of clearly separated ones.
An error occurred while saving the comment I kinda support this but I would like it to be a part of more broad improvement. I can dock Stroke in Color, right, but I can't land these two combined to the side with other palettes, because this hybrid will take the whole separate column. Please, think about improving this.

An error occurred while saving the comment It does work in most cases in Illustrator. What is the specific tool that it does not work with for you?

An error occurred while saving the comment Well, I can kind of fake it, applying a second stroke in the Appearance, but joints will be noticeably sharp in extreme cases. Still, sound like an interesting idea, I vote for it.

An error occurred while saving the comment I would even like any custom angle, set in separate field (with presets), rather than only vertical/horizontal

I know, it’s three years after you reported it, still I wonder. -

To have strokes around your linked images, you should do some additional steps:
1. Apply a stroke (obviously)
2. Open Appearance panel
3. Focus the applied stroke attribute
4. Apply Path > Outline Object effect
It should be placed 'inside' of the stroke attribute, not the object itself. You can always drag-n-drop it if you missed.
Why does it work?
The image does not have a path for a stroke to be applied to. If you aplly the effect to the image directly, its pixel data is replaced by a path around the bounding box. Applied to stroke, it give it 'rails' to be stroked along.
Not easy to grasp, but once you get it, Appearance panel becomes your best friend.
I know exactly why it happens.
Illustrator does not take x-height and cap height values from the font, as many of us believe, but instead measure outlines of a specified glyph 'physically'. This means if a glyph is visually smaller, like here, or larger, like when it has optical overshoots for rounded stems (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/44639661-font-height-options-misbehave-with-rounded-fonts), — it calculates heights wrong.
Needs to be addressed.
