When trying to reorganize plots in a window, the layout mode comes in handy. However, you might often end up with tiny spaces between graphs or incorrect alignments. Imagine yu have moved graphs around e.g. to put all curves from file A on the left and file B on the right. If you now call the "cleanup layout" function, it will mess everything up as it reorders graphs according to some internal order, not the current upper left corners for instance.
The expected behavior would be for it to first order graphs internally according to the position of their upper left corner, and only after that to align them nicely.
