Drag-select multiple artboards
I was in the middle of designing, and then realised that I needed to increase the length of a previous artboard and add in more data. Now to do that I first need to move all the artboards below it further down. But to that, I have to individually select each artboard to create a group - and then move them. This in my case meant selecting 20 artboards one by one. Doing this is a big pain, and often one wrong click lost all the selections. :( :( :(
An easier way would have been to have drag-select action for artboards.
Basically I'm requesting a feature to achieve the artboard selection as in the attached image by drag-select action.

We’ve added marquee select of multiple artboards in Preview 3! Download it now and try it out.

Would you be willing to enhance this feature? I still think it could be better!
I want to drag select ONLY the names of the artboards at the top of the artboard
Why not both?

Click on the artboard name, this makes the artboard selectable. Then drag away! :)

Artboards should also be able to be aligned using the layer alignment tools.

Yeah, moving artboards around is a big part of UX and being able to make changes easily to the flow of a prototype.
The 'A' key could be better applied for this, dragging selects artboards, clicking in place creates one. Simple.
