Dynamic content spacers/content aware object placement
I attached an image explaining the idea. In short - cut our design time by 50%. When adding content to content blocks you almost always need to do the tedious task of selecting everything beneath and moving it to create space for the changes. I want to eliminate this task by using Dynamic content spacers. Just hover over a border and connect that border to another - lock it and type in your prefered px / point or % - your preference and voila. Every time you make changes the design just moves magically with all the content :)

Design in divs. It would be great if you could design in "divs" so if you add content to a section the divs below that div slide down This could be associated with the padding feature.

We need content aware object placement. So, if you are placing an element by holding the Shift for example, it should move all elements below by that new object height. So we have REAL insertation of elements that push the other elements. That’s the only thing that separating inDesing to be perfect web design software.
For example if you want to insert a new section or a banner or our text is outgrowing that text box between it should move all elements below it by its height. Or when you are moving an element using some keyboard button it should also push all elements below it also.
