Bug Description

if making a flyer for example with 3 columns I can imagine the following process for creation:
1: set up vertical guides for the left and right edges of the document.
2: set up two more vertical guides at approx 33% and 66% of document width dividing document into thirds.
3: draw 3 rectangles , snapping them to the guides filling the full height of the doccument.
4: fill the rectangle's with colour.
5 'glue' the vertacle edges of all the rectangles to all of the verticle guides.
6 magical feature suggestion: move the guides and the rectangles dynamically resize.

this would be an excelent adition the the guides feature making it extremely powerful

within the glue feature if one edge of a rectangle was glued to only one guide, moving the guide would not resize the rectangle - it would move it.

this princaple of glueing also applies to objects without the use of guides

thanks
