Summary: moveto option for dragselected

Initial Comment:
It would be wonderful to use dragselected to position a fragment and then be 
able to visualize the move with moveto/show moveto

oooh, sorry to take so long to get to this. I quite agree. Sort of a
"moveTo selected" command. Certainly the COMPARE command business will now
give us the exact translation and rotation to do the job. Maybe the thing
to do is to be able to compare saved coordinates with current coordinates.
So, for example:

save coord "pt1"
[do whatever move of the selected groups]
x  = compare({selected}, "pt1")  # x is a 4x4 matrix

then you could do:

restore coord "pt1"
moveto SELECTED @x

interestingly, then,

moveto SELECTED @{-x}

would UNDO this change in a smooth operation.

I think this is a superb idea. It will take some work to figure out how to
make an interface and how to design the script. I suggest looking into the
navigate command. The idea there is to produce a guide; what I wonder is
how to combine a position and an orientation. Hmm. Maybe quaternions....
