Align multiple selected objects on artboard (alt+align-icon)
Could you please add the feature to align multiple selected objects on the artboard.
Sketch has this feature were you could select (lets say) two objects and align them with them self by pressing the align-icon, but if you hold the alt-key you could align them on the artboard
With this feature you don't always have to group multiple objects to align them on the artboard.

Every time I use XD I select multiple items on any given artboard and expect - when I click align center - to have them align with the center of the artboard. I can understand why you have set it to one object and and group only but if you pressed the align button a second time whilst having multiple items selected, this creates a lovely power user interaction. Saving a lot of alignment hassle (aligning multiple items together then grouping them then aligning them again).

When you select an item within a group, you currently cannot align it to the artboard. You have to ungroup said object(s) to do so and regroup the entire group again after alignment. Something similar to Direct Select in Illustrator or InDesign would be helpful.
