Dear Lukáš,
thank you very much for collecting this information!

I’ll try as soon as I get some time, since algorithmic image placement is a 
recurring problem for me, as I try to replace InDesign in my workflow.

I thought about providing a module, but each of my projects has so differing 
needs that either every macro would need a bunch of options, or I need a lot of 
similar macros. We’ll see...

Greetlings, Hraban
