hi there,

I'm using dia for writing UML diagrams and I'd like to propose
some little enhancements:

It would be nice to be able to snap control points of objects not
only to the grid but to arbitrary other objects as well. Take as
an example multiple lifelines. Imagine that I want them to start
at the same hight. Having seen my girl friend (a graphics designer)
at work I'd like to be able to insert some temporary horizontal
line object at an arbitrary position and snap all lifelines to it.
Once this is done, the temporary line can be removed.
In fact, this idea could be extended to arbitrary alignments so
that one can align not only to curves but to intersction points etc.

There is a nice postscript drawing editor which has similar features:
IPE (http://www.cs.ust.hk/~otfried/Ipe/)

Best regards,   Stefan
