Perhaps 3Dview header is not the right place for it. but do people use 
menus?

The location of the button should be in line with the users "workflow"  
not in a location that needs to be remembered.  Wherever it is located 
it should be "just there when I need it".

I think its a great idea to have a single button for the aligning 
process, but at the same time I think obscuring it in a menu that 
already has 23, then 14 other options might make it less useful than 
intended.

But perhaps I am just opening a bigger can of worms to do with the 
layout and structure of things than I should be. So feel free to ignore 
this until the 2.5 refactor.
