No, since guides are useless unless they are seen and so I feel that=20
pressing shift should never enable them.  Note that snap-to-guides are=20
always enabled when they are showing for about the same reason.

Good catch!
Hmm, not as easy as a simple move, though. Using alt has problems so I'd=20
like to avoid that as much as possible. And not using ctrl here seems=20
like an awful waste.
Ok, I'm going to duplicate the above described move along X/Y for both the=
=20
control and the alt keys.  That should help with discoverability of the=20
feature.

Any suggestions are welcome!
