We used to have an option to snap only to nodes and/or paths, which currently is not in the snapping preferences dialog in SVN (I'm still working on this dialog). I've been shuffling the checkboxes, but also the snapmanager code. I will put the snap to paths and/or nodes option back in for snapping to objects,

That would be great.

but I wonder if we need something similar for the boundingboxes also: snap to the sides and/or corners? Does anyone think that would be usefull?

I don't personally see much reason for wanting to snap to a bounding box. It's only weakly related to the underlying geometry. A (corner) node, on the other hand, is a visible geometric feature.
