Bug Description

I was waiting for this function for a long time, since version 0.48. It seems that the development team doesn't consider it necessary. So, I clumsily mimicked some parts of original source codes that do alignment things, so as to have the node alignment be able to do the alignment that I want. If this patch is acceptable, then you guys probably still have to rename variable names to comply with the coding style of yours.
Please note, the patch was made for inkscape-0.48.4.tar.bz2 of which the MD5 is 47bd8546e42ba396624eef9eb66b9b6c

Patch tested successfully (basic use cases only) with 0.91+devel r14202 on OS X 10.7.5 - any chances that the two node-align patches (bug #171287, bug #1187320) could be combined?
