The fix is barely adequate for only a few people IMO.

Some 1990s-era programs for graphical work had the ability to drag the corner where the rulers meet, out into the document somewhere, to set a new origin.

I would expect to _at least_ have a document-specific setting to set the origin anywhere on the page, numerically.

If I'm drawing a room (furniture layout etc.), I don't want the corner of the room to need to be at the corner of the page. It should be whichever corner I decided to start measuring from. (And that in fact is what I'm trying to do at this very moment.)
