Hello, I don't know if this has been requested/suggested before but I have a small suggestion to improve workflow for someone like me.
The idea is to use the align function with a modifier key. Right now whenever you choose multiple objects and align them center or middle from the context toolbar (without going through the alignment option and choosing the first or last selected objects) they just meet in the middle of the selection bounding box.
My suggestion is to use the align option from the context toolbar with the command or shift to align with the last object you selected.
Attached is an image of what I mean.
