Good point. As I said someone would have found a

Align and distribute support in Kicad would be useful, and one of the
features I want the most--however, when I looked at the code to work
on it, it did not seem like something I could do. It would be
interesting to see what the dev team thinks, and if they have thoughts

Lorenzo,
Too bad that Altium is also a PCB program, which happens to support
grouping objects. Imagine moving a big BGA c

Hi Nate,
IMHO, adding new types of copper objects may be tricky - aside from just
drawing, you need to take care of DRC, hit testing, dragging

A little heavy but could work. However the exporter would have to
rebuild the netlist, I don't know if it can do it.
More likely it could build a virtual module containi

Specifically, rectangle aperture flashes get turned into round vias.
After browsing the repos, I think there are a couple solutions.
