Align selected widgets #7266

Description

@borondics

What's your use case?

We already have the "Align widgets to a grid" functionality, which works nice when the workflow is not complicated. However, when there are lots of widgets, it doesn't always make a nice arrangement.

What's your proposed solution?

Could you add the possibility to first select several widgets on which the alignment would act on? Then the user could make a nicely aligned complex workflow one subgroup at a time.

Are there any alternative solutions?

Not really... Right now I am doing it manually, which is a bit tedious.

    @borondics, wouldn't you actually wish #6477?

    I usually don't want to align widgets, I want to have straight, horizontal connections. Which is, of course, more difficult; I attempted this several times but gave up.
