This looks great.. we were hoping a feature like this would be included
for the very purpose of setting the user up with a title block.

I've been helping with new freshers at CUED, so haven't had a chance to
try it out yet, but will hopefully be able to once things settle down

No comments yet, but a few questions:

What does it consider the origin for placement? (If I place at 0,0), or
some offset, will it work for any size title block, and which corner
will it get put in?
