Disagree. I usually need an imported graphic to fit in an allocated
*vertical* space, while the horizontal size is set by the column width.
I want to specify size in column-inches, and any resulting whitespace
on the edges is an expected consequence.

Anyhow, if you don't like the bounding box on a particular eps plot,
just call up ghostscript and change it to suit.
