Centering of objects

When creating a custom object, it would be really convenient to be able to set the coordinates not just of the corners, but also of the center of the object. For example, setting an overlapping pair of circles 10cm and 7cm so the inner circle is perfectly centered requires putting the top-left node +1.5cm right and down of the values of the 10cm circle and that's doable. But if you're overlapping a circle on top of an oblong sphere with the top-left node at, say, 27.375 x 354.872mm and the the inner circle is 423.315mm across, doing the math gets annoying very quickly.

It would really be great if there was an alignment tool where you could select an object or objects and then align them to left, center, right, bottom or top of one of the selected objects, a guideline (which Anyrail also needs) or the drawing edges.
