[Bf-funboard] snap / align improvements in blender 2.43?

[Karl Kühberger]

hi!

I just have downloaded the 2.43 beta version of blender
and was quite disappointed about the still very primitive snap/align  
features
of blender.

two very simple examples for what I am looking for:

1. if I extrude a wall or column from the floor and want to move it  
to the height of the ceiling,
imho it should just snap in when I move it near to the ceiling.

2. if I move a furniture to a wall, it should should snap in the same  
way.

I am really glad about all the new stuff in blender 2.43, but blender  
really lacks
some very basic features to model easy, fast and intuitive.
For me it seems to be much more easier to code this snap/align  
feature than
all the complicated stuff like sculpt, fluid, softbody, ... or am I  
wrong?
