But I don't think this is only about text layout. I was more imagining using it
for complex plans and diagrams.

> you may group objects and such a group behaves as wanted.

Eyal mentioned in the Description that his points 2 and 3 are not covered by
groups (cases of one shape following the other when only one is moved/resized),
but I think point 3 is actually already covered, given that the pivot point can
be moved to anywhere. I guess it would only make it marginally more convenient
(e.g. quickly rotating the two shapes using the default pivot point of one of
the shapes).

But admittedly, this sounds like a complex feature to develop, when _most_ of
the use cases would be covered by the existing groups.
