Description
Currently the placement of new items and especially the automated layout of documents without positioning information is rather random. States often overlap and the transitions cross over unrelated states etc.
Such placement algorithms are not trivial, and I've never seen a really good one. However, we can certainly do better than this. As we have an infinitely large "canvas" we can definitely avoid overlaps between unrelated states, for example.
