Doesn't work for me with 3.6.0 Beta 3 @ CentOS 5.7 x86_64.

No, if you do that you move an (existing) snap line to/into the ruler - and
delete it. I am doing the opposite: I want to create a snap line.

Maybe the following is clearer.

Variant A:
-----------------------------
* Right (mouse) click, and choose "Insert Snap Point/Line...". There, create a
vertical snap object at position "-1.00 cm".

Expected: A snap line is created at that position, which is by default 1cm left
of the left page edge (grey background).

Result: No snap line is created.
-----------------------------


Variant A:
-----------------------------
* Create a snap line by clicking on the ruler, keeping the mouse pressed and
and dragging a snap line out of the rule. Place it in the gray area left [or
top] of the page (or more precisely: at negative coordinates).

Result: The snap line is properly created, but right (mouse) clicking on it and
choosing "Edit Snap Line..." shows "0.00" as coordinate instead of the
expected, e.g. "-1.24cm".
-----------------------------


The problem seems to be that the Edit Snap Line and Insert Snap Point/Line
dialogs only handle nonnegative coordinates while in reality negative
coordinates can occur. (Especially if the coordinate origin is moved from the
top left page corner.)
