I don't like it.  Why would we use resizebox rather than the the
arguments in includegraphics for pictures?  From a TeXnish perspective
it seems wrong and inelegant to me (totally subjective).

For tikz figures resizing should be done via the scale argument to
preserve the right font sizes.  If people want to resize a tikz figure
they should do so in their tikz code. 

That being said, better tikz handling in Org is a wonderful idea.
