Site Logo: Add aspect-ratio tool for custom image dimensions

[iamtakashi]

The aspect ratio control for custom image dimension has been very helpful.

Can we have that for the Site Logo block too? It could be useful for some themes that are designed with a specific logo size and an aspect ratio in mind.

I struggle with identifying when a site logo should have an aspect ratio assigned to it. The only instance I can think of is for when your avatar is your site logo. Otherwise, I don't think users would expect to replace a logo with their own and have it conform to a different aspect ratio.

Images work better, because there can be some soft-cropping, but logos can't.

Yes, despite jumping quickly and trying to add the feature (see try/site-logo-ar), I second @richtabor 's problem above. Usual users will have a logo that is what it is - a photo, a drawing, some clipart. The profesional designer will have multiple variants of the logo. So setting a constraint in a pattern for the site logo in terms of aspect ratio does not look useful.

Maybe in terms of suggestion? Like, this aspect ration would look best.

Thank you both for the feedback. Yes, @richtabor, I had the Hey theme in mind when I made this request. It's probably too niche.

I think we should close this one as it doesn't seem like a good idea for the reasons above.
