BEAU: I want more text box widths! I find need for boxes that fit 5em, 10em, 20em, and 40em widths. These should be in EMs so text can resize and still fit. Since it is useful to apply a width to other form elements to have them similar sizes (not always a text box, such as <select multiple>) I propose renaming them to "input.tiny", "input.small", "input.medium", "input.large", and "input.half" (not sure how you would do "half" in EMs however.
