Same sized widgets with one snapping

SUMMARY
Apple presented the incredible and before unheard idea of desktop widgets in
MacOS 14 "Sonoma".
Well, that nothing new for KDE! However, the makers of the golden cage had some
good ideas that widgets on KDE could also benefit from IHMO.

DESIGN & SUGGESTION
The widgets on MacOS snap (have a 'magnetic' border) for size and position.

IMHO widgets on KDE could look much better and the desktop much cleaner if you
could match the size of widgets. This would allow for an more even and
organized look.
If you want a specific size you could eg. hold down the Shift key to disable
the magnetic border. Since the Shift key is already used in many applications
for 'free' (non magnetic) movement (eg. gimp and inkscape) it's not a new
invention but something users are already used to.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This would make a great feature for Plasma 6 to clearly set it apart.
(I hope the product + component sorting is correct. I copied it from a bug that
included widgets. if it's in the wrong category please move it :) )
