Jan,

Good to hear from you, since you were the one I was more eager to hear its 
opinion, as you were the one that created the GuidesTool.

It is a separate docker but yet part of the GuidesTool.

It clears all the existing guides... clearing only the guides inserted by the 
docker would need some ugly patches. I might change the string if you wish.

That's, of course, easily changed =).

Another improvement I was thinking is that perhaps we could even extend the 
concept a bit more and allow the guides to be different colored, that way you 
could have, say, 1/4s of a page in red and 1/3s in blue. That would require 
more work though and can be postponed.

Wanna have a look? I might send you the patch and files if you wish to.

Carlos
