Feature request: Subdivisions #20

In an earlier post, someone wanted the feature for subdivisions. I would like to propose something similar.

When I design with PS, I use almost always a baseline overlay — using a pattern. For example a 20px baseline with a 10px subdivision which is about 50% transparant. This is basically having two baselines, but this is very useful for aligning.

I hope this can be a feature. Not sure about the api for this, but this could be something like it: /40/ no subdivision /40-10/ 10px subdivision /24-8/ 8px subdivision

Or consider the subdivision as an offset: /40-10/ only one extra baseline with an offset of 10px from the main baseline /40-10-20-30/ three extra baselines 10px apart

Just my 2c.
