Bug Description

Hello world, why does Origin Point does not change the coordinates when placed on PCB editor? That would be really awsome and helpful if we could move the (0,0) Zero Point according to Origin Point... lots of calculations and transformations would be far easier this way..
Can we add something like this instead manually calculating something from "virtual" origin point set at lets say (100,100)..?
