Nodes - grid snapping for clean node tree

Virtually every other node system I use has grid snapping in order to keep a clean organized node tree. Please add this feature to the Node panel on the Color Page.

I have some tricks on how to organize complex node trees, but it basically boils own to laying paper tape over the monitor and eyeballing the tops of the nodes so their position is absolutely exact.

Another trick is you can always right click and use "Original Size" and the Node window zoom control to optimize the relative size of the nodes. It takes a while to figure out how to position and place the nodes so they work well across hundreds (or thousands) of shots. I'm not sure it could be done automatically, especially if you mix vertical and horizontal layouts in the same node tree, so there's a lot of "it depends" here.
