How do we make the layout not suck so much?

[rmcgibbo]

It's really hard to properly layout the slides when they have nontrivial content on them, like multiple images that you want to position with respect to one and other. Just adding raw html and a bunch of <div style="margin-top:100px"> tags is quite cumbersome. Perhaps more slide classes could help.

I don't like WYSIWYG content editors, but WYSIWYG layout customization, like moving the elements around within the slides with the mouse could be great if there was a good library that can handle this, and if there's some way to save the resulting layout back into the markdown.

Any input appreciated.

So I know exactly nothing on this, but to me this problem must have some solutions. There are just too many people doing web stuff for there to be no solutions here.

Yeah, me either. But I figured other people are sometimes looking at this repository (it has more stars than anything else I've put on github). I googled around a little, and there's stuff like http://jqueryui.com/draggable/

Or http://gridster.net/demos/expandable-widgets.html
