Next major version... ;)
Devide the screen into maybe 24 x 24 (or whatever density) sections, and grant modules property rights to adjacent sections.
I am aware the aspect ratio would make them into rectangles rather then squares. So? a 24 x 24 division would make it 33px x 24px on an 800x600, 42px x 32px on a 1024x768, and 53px x 42px on a 1280 x 1024. They are relatively close 1.37, 1.31, and 1.26 respectively.
Maybe allow the webmaster to set the property division - i.e. set up the square sizes. Maybe instead of relative (24 x 24), also allow absolute, like 30px x 30px.
So a module location would be defined not by left, right, and display order, but but the property coordinate(s). Maybe just the upper left corner would be sufficient.
This would allow the quick CSS creation, and some interesting effects with possible "overlapping".
Allow modules to have X/Y size setting which defines their propery width and height.
Allow internal order positioning. i.e. in what order the module appears within the page code itself, not necessarily on the display. This would also allow some serious Search Engine optimization. A module could be displayed on the bottom, yet appear in the code at the top.
By the way, no rush. You can do this tomorrow. :D
I am even willing to throw some $$$ after this.
