Please add a Coordinate Repeater Control

I have a use case for a coordinate repeater which would work just like a flex repeater but it would create instances of a template inside a coordinate container instead of a flex container. The reason is that you can overlap items inside a coordinate container without margin kludges.
My use case is that I'm making a template for a gauge and I know that devices that I would represent with a gauge don't always have the same number of alarm condition setpoints. I want to be able to make one flexible template instead of a bunch of static ones.
I could pass a dictionary into the template to define the sp definitions and whether they trigger when the value is over or under them, txt on the indicator, styles to apply, etc. Then a script transform could iterate through the dictionary to create the instances of the SP markers. The markers have to be an embedded SVG in the same scaling as the gauge or it won't resize with the gauge.
This is a screenshot of an inflexible version of the gauge using static hi and lo setpoints.

Does the 'View Canvas' cover your use case?
