The one in the top-left. What is it? Nautilus?

This doesn't look like a theme problem but rather application design
problem. These sizes are specified in Glade/GtkBuilder Xml
definitions.
If you switch to different themes you should still see that those
elements are of different size.
I'd suggest to file a bug linking to this package & papercuts project.
This is what papercuts are for.

The middle one with "obviously more thin" as compared to what? I've
tilted my screen sideways and all three look same width. Personally
font choosing dialog is IMHO a mess and needs UI love =)

The last one is probably Gnome HIG violation. But Inkscape & Gimp (for
that matter) and quite big packages and do not necessarily follow HIG.
Worth a shot with papercut bug as well.


Next time you notice one issues, change a theme to something from a
different theme and compare, if the "bug" is still there it is a bug
in the application itself and not the theme (or as you have pointed
out - different applications not being consistent with each other)
