Bug Description
There are several important buttons missing in the align dialog:
1.) Align left side of objects to the horizontal center of anchor
2.) Align right side of objects to the horizontal center of anchor
3.) Align top side of objects to the vertical center of anchor
4.) Align bottom side of objects to the vertical center of anchor
5.) Align horizontal center of objects to left side of anchor
6.) Align horizontal center of objects to right side of anchor
7.) Align vertical center of objects to top side of anchor
8.) Align vertical center of objects to bottom side of anchor
The easiest way to accomplish this would be to separate the "aligning operation" from the "target to align to":
Horizontal Operation: Align Object 1.) "Left", 2.) "Horizontal Center", 3.) "Right" to "Left", "Horizontal Center", "Right" of anchor
Vertial Operation: Align Object 1.) "Top", 2.) "Vertical Center", 3.) "Bottom" to "Top", "Vertical Center", "Bottom" of anchor
Makes 6 buttons per orientation, instead of 5 now and give 8 new operations.

In connection to this it would be nice to have the option to align object centres (transformation centres) in both x and y.
