Very nice, but shouldn't you pick the center of the component instead 
of its lower left, or why not picking the lower left of the refdes, 
which is the thing one is loocking for when searching, that should be
easy to find for the program ?

Instead of forcing the user to tell the program the bonding box, why 
not scan through it (recursively), let the program do the job?

What is the interface to finding symbols, is it in libgeda or in scheme?
