Comment 4 for bug 287913

Just tried envelope path tool. That is kind of what I'm looking for, but it could be refined. As you mentioned, it needs to work properly with groups (and, preferably, objects that have not been converted to path too). But I was hoping it could (a) be a button in the node edit tool, and (b) more importantly be able to do things like show a bounding box with nodes on four corners of the group so you could stretch and morph it exactly like you could a rectangle that has been converted to path. The envelope tool is much more limited than what I'm talking about.
