Please, let guides (and grids) rest in place.
I had no idea what kind of Pandora's box i opened when voicing my concerns about the new <Del> command for guides. No need to repeat Luca's long list - I agree and second his views.
Please let the guides stay guides, but add - rotational snap (for guides and objects) - extend/trim (of straight path segments) and any combination of guide line positioning is possible combined with the powerful 'Objects to Guides' command which even works with LPEs (take 'Ruler' or 'Interpolate' or 'Stitch' to create amazing Guides sets).
The new 'delete' command which re-uses a keyboard shortcut for objects but not the same selection mechanism still concerns me and I really would like to see it changed back to 'Ctrl' or another combination of meta-keys that is still available for guides. Or - if possible: define a verb for it so the user can redefine the shortcut in 'keys/default.xml'.
