I think this functionality would be useful when "tidying up" a model towards the end of modelling e.g. where part rotations/"un"-rotations may have caused part positions to have non-zero values after the decimal place.

I like this idea, I'll put it on the list for the next major version. Although you really should prevent rounding drift while editing. For example by using the 'home' key now and then while inserting new parts. Or by first selecting nicely round similar placed parts before adding a new one.

In the current version you can also align all individual parts in the selection separability to the current grid using the selection/placement/snap all to... menu item. This probably the feature I would extend into your suggested dialog.

Could be useful too, I could add it as an extra alignment option in the same dialog.
