There are several really important commands in the gui builder which are "buried" in the contextual menu:
* anchor
* set same size
* set default size
* spacing around component

Some of these seem like it would be beneficial to put them in the gui builder toolbar (even if they were all just in a menu that dropped down from the toolbar).

The reason i suggest this is i didn't notice these commands were even available for a long time.  That is, they weren't sufficiently discoverable, at least for me.  so making them more discoverable would be valuable.
