For the representation of Rectangles, see
http://sketch.sourceforge.net/Doc/devguide-18.html

Ellipses are represented similarly by the transformation that maps the
unit circle onto the ellipse.

Both classes are derived from RectangularObject and RectangularPrimitive
in Sketch/Graphics/base.py. You can get at the transformation object
with the Trafo method.
