I have some crude patches that changes this to be relative to the
manufacturing ("aux") origin. That's the "private branch" all my bug
reports refer to. It works in all situations I've tried, but I haven't
tried more exotic configurations like polar coordinates.
My intent is to have this configurable by the user, with the default
being the current implementation. Also planned but not implemented is to
allow the user to choose which way the measurements increase, so that
the Y axis can be flipped to increase as you move toward the top of the
screen.

So there’s no way to change the coordinates origin? (Even for display/editing
purposes?)
The space bar reset the *relative* coordinates origin.

For instance, if I have a component at (5,4) and I change the grid origin to
(2,2) then I expect the component location to now be (3,2). But it’s still
(5,4). Is there a reason for this?
Yes: the grid origin has nothing to do with the coordinates origin.
