Hmm… interesting idea… Something like:
resize <group> to <rect> relative to {topLeft | topRight | bottomRight | bottomLeft}

While possibly handy I’m not convinced it resolves the issue because no matter what new syntax we add if something as fundamental as setting the rect has undefined behavior then it’s going to cause trouble…
