Without adding options, it would be best to have all transformations operations
centered on main file origin.
An extension would be to allow transformations centered on on user defined point
(cf. MLCad).
And to go further, transformations centered on subfile origin (this is more
controversial, since a type 2..5, or multiple selection doesn't have a center
properly defined). Maybe allow this only on type 1.

Maybe indeed it is machine (or OS? I use Windows2k) dependant. Anyway here is
what I see:
- Open a file, make a modification. A * appear on tab name. If you try to close
LDDP, a warning is issued.
- Move the cursor (with mouse click or with keyboard arrow). The * disappear,
and if you close LDDP it shuts down without warning (and without saving, you
loose your modification).
A wish: it would be nice if there was somewhere a visual grid size reminder (in
status bar?)
