GC > Preferences > General > Selection > Selection Size
1) Position Color + Size Color
Ok as preferences, unlikely that you change this ad-hoc.
2) Display next to selection rectangle
Better in the main menu with a keystroke to toggle this on/off on demand.
Rename from "Size" which in general language means simply "width x height" to "Dimensions" which better corresponds to the fact that it also shows the co-ordinates of top-left and bottom-right of the selection.

Could assign shortcuts to both:
Show Selection
Show Dimensions
But what does "Show Dimensions" relate to? Dimensions of the image? The window? Whatever…?
→ Therefore please name the menu items to what my proposal foresaw for good reasons:
Show Selection
Show Selection Dimensions
Show Selection
Show Dimensions

Dimensions of selection, line, circle, rectangle - but that is to long for the menu item.

Thanks for the info! Learned something new. That this is not only for the Selection, but also for vector object drawing etc.
Given that new information I propose to rename the labels to this:
Show Selection Frame
Show Selection & Object Metrics
Zeige Auswahl-Rahmen
Zeige Auswahl/Objekt Maße
