In my eyes it's a quick and dirty solution.

I would prefer a user dialog to select stroke color, stroke weight and fill color. Even to select the page or a page range on which to place new rectangles.

I'll post later on to show what i mean.

Regarding the stroke problem:
I think this should be changed by Adobe in the future. The strokeWeight is neither added to the geometric Bounds of a box (compare to CSS box model) nor is it substraced of the box. So to fix this problem you will have to define the rectangles position depending on the stroke weight.
