While you are modifying the grid functionality it might be worth exploring if you like having the grid underneath as an overlay, or if there is a reason to allow both ways. In some applications I find the overly Grid intrusive but in others and underlying grid it is too easily hidden which can make it less useful (if i recally correctly Visio cheats by making its object semi-transparent while dragging).
You know, what would probably be really cool is that when we have a layers dialog to put the grid on there. That would also give a very intuitive way for users to turn on and off the visibility of the grid. I'll look and see if I can get it to render at the bottom instead of an overlay.
