I think c is trivial to do. The only problem I see is that the snapping 
hint would be very important here, otherwise the user would not know, 
which objects size he has snapped to.
For d, I used the "hot corner" to make it more explicit for the user to 
which point he is snapping to. But that is nothing that is written in 
stone, so I don't oppose automatically using all corners and the center 
point of the shape for the snapping at once.

Ciao Jan
