Your feature request is to place gallery objects at a fix position, with the
use case to create more than one page with static objects. That's a valid
request and would be a valuable enhancement.

The solution is up to the developers. Glue points are used for connectors not
to store positional information. So my suggestion is just another idea: objects
that have set the protection flag should keep it at the gallery. Quite simple
from the usability POV.

The real problems are on the implementation side. Additonally to the question
how to store any flag, Draw doesn't start dragging for protected objects,
neither for short nor long click, while Writer just don't accept protected drag
objects. And we need a common approach. And once we have the exact position
stored how should the process work when this sticky object is dragged from the
gallery? I'd say like any other with the exception that from any point where it
is dropped the object snaps to its fix origin.

Besides all these questions I think it would be consistent and comfortable to
see the drag image even when started from the gallery.
