Description

Just like a spreadsheet shows the borders of the print pages, it would be really useful to be able to toggle the borders of the map items in the composers to be viewed in the canvas. This would help with label and annotation placement and generally give a better sense of what is going to be printed.

These could be represented as a group layer containing memory layers, one per map item, with names like <composer1>:<map0>
